When soldiers go into battle, occasionally they are asked to retreat. This retreat is not a surrender, but rather a resetting and time of rest. We are in a battle. It goes unseen and often unnoticed, but if we don't take the time to reset and refocus our attention on the One who has already won the war, we will grow weary and become more susceptible to attacks from the enemy.

Ablaze Youth holds an overnight retreat once a semester for all 6th-8th grade students of the Brazos Valley. Retreats focus on giving the youth an opportunity to leave behind the worries of homework, social lives, and whatever problems they are facing to make time and space to be intimate and open with the Lord.


Be on the lookout for our next retreat information. We recently had our spring 2021 Youth rally in Brenham, Tx. We had over 60 youth from four different parishes come together to encounter Christ. Here are a few pictures from that retreat!
