Sorry the Explore Retreat was CANCELED THIS YEAR

EXPLORE is a summer experience for young men who are enrolled in high school or who will be enrolling this fall, as well as recent high school graduates, that want to understand their faith better, know themselves better, have fun, and make new friends from all over the diocese.

Staffed by priests and deacons, along with seminarians and others thinking about a vocation to priesthood, EXPLORE often helps a young man discern his God given vocation. In a society that does not seem to understand how someone could accept a vocation to the priesthood, it helps him to meet others who would like to know more and also those who have been in priestly formation. However, EXPLORE is not just all talks or prayer, but also a lot of fun!
