Other Stuff

E-devos ~ Need a little extra something to start your day? Why not have us send you our e- thought for the day? Just email us and say, "Sign me on!"

A Retreat for Bust Students will start after the 7:00 Mass of Feb. 26 and ending on Thursday, Mar. 1, The BSR is designed to work around your busy academic schedule. You won’t even miss any classes. All you have to do is commit to a minimum of two half-hour pieces of your time each day for the four days of the retreat. One half hour you will spend in quiet, personal prayer, whenever and wherever you can fit it in. For the second half hour, you’ll meet one-on-one at the Newman Center with one of the spiritual directors to talk about what is or isn’t going on during the other half hour. Again, you’ll schedule this time when it works for you.
That's all there is to it. There will be other things you'll be invited to participate in if you can, but your minimal investment is just one hour a day.
Plan to stay in touch with things that matter more, like you prayer life and your relationship with God. BSR brochures and registration forms are on the kiosk at the Newman Center.

Spring Break applications and brochures are available at the Newman Center for anyone interested in jointhe Crow Reservation in Montana. More info here

A reflective hike on holy ground
Last fall, several students took part in a reflective hike in the Kickapoo Valley Reserve, about 45 minutes SE of La Crosse. The hike highlighted the presence of God in the beautiful coulee environment sp plenty in the Kickapoo Valley. We have an opportunity to visit her again in her winter finery on Saturday Feb. 11. The day will include hikes to some of the ice caves in the region. Sign up on the kiosk in the entrance no later than Friday.
