The Men’s Kairos retreat concluded Friday, February 28, 2026. The retreat went on from Monday to Friday and for many Marian students, it was considered a great experience. Marian has hosted Women’s and Men’s Kairos for several years. This retreat provides students a different environment to reflect on their relationship with God amongst the presence of other students over a four-day, three-night event.
Kairos is commonly understood as “the Lord’s time,” serving as a peaceful haven for Marian students to distance themselves from the workload of school and build spiritual connections with God and the people around them. Although this retreat is only offered to juniors and seniors, many students are encouraged to go to receive the benefits. During this retreat, Marian students participate in a series of discussions within small and large groups, and are offered the opportunity to pray and celebrate the sacraments together.
With Men’s Kairos coming to an end on Friday, many Marian students revealed that the experience was authentic and awakening, allowing them to really connect on a deeper level with themselves and the people around them.
Daniel Omehe, senior student explained, “If you go to Kairos with an open mind, it really positively affects my relationship with God and people and even people I didn’t know and with others.”
With Men’s Kairos concluding last Friday for the school year, there is still more Kairos action to come. Coming up March 17 is Women’s Kairos, which will occur from March 17 to March 20 for female juniors and seniors. To learn more about Kairos, see Ms. Grauvogl and Ms. Hansen.
