Retreats
Queens and Staten Island

Give yourself the time you deserve to get away, meet new people, pray, relax, and take stock of where you are. Campus Ministry sponsored retreats allow you to do just this. The weekends are led by a group of St. John's student leaders.  Reservations can be made in any Campus Ministry office.
In Staten Island, call (718) 390-4305.
