As part of the Faith Formation program of Santa Barbara Catholic School, the SBCS 8th graders attended  a retreat facilitated by Religion teacher, Mr. Delson Balance last October 25 and 26, 2016. The retreat was held at the Santa Barbara Parish Hall. Focusing on the Mercy Core Value of STEWARDSHIP, the retreat had a three-fold objective: 1.) To let students develop a habit of reflection and prayer. 2) To help student gain valuable insights from Pope Francis’ encyclical, “Laudato Si” and from the life of Venerable Catherine McAuley. 3.) To foster a positive and healthy class spirit and unity that would enable students to get to know and understand themselves, their peers, God’s creation and hopefully, God, better.
