PLEASE NOTE: WHILE THIS RETREAT FOCUSES ON INTIMATE/ ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS, YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE IN A RELATIONSHIP TO ATTEND. THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COUPLES RETREAT.
Santa Clara University's Relationships Retreat is a weekend of prayer, conversation, and community designed to explore our experience of intimate relationships. Throughout the weekend, with the Monterey Bay as our setting, we'll seek to explore themes such as: connection, freedom, joy, intimacy, commitment, desire, dating, hookup culture, loneliness and otherness. Components of the retreat include group conference talks, group conversation, individual meetings with a retreat director, as well as plenty of time to enjoy the wonders of the sea.
The retreat will be held at the Pajaro Dunes Resort in Watsonville, CA-- February 7-9, 2020. This retreat is not intended to be a couples retreat, but is open to all interested in exploring the matter.
