PURE FAITH. PURE FRIENDSHIP. PURE MARIST.

What a beautiful couple of days of faith, friendship and fellowship for our sixth graders at their class retreat at Subiaco!

Surrounded by the peaceful, welcoming setting of the Subiaco Retreat House on the grounds of the St. Benedict Monastery in Oxford, our students stepped away from their everyday routines to reflect on their relationships with themselves, one another and God. Through prayer, reflection, and time together, they explored what it means to be the kind of friend Jesus calls us to be: someone who embodies trust, inclusiveness, integrity, a positive attitude, care and a spirit of joy.

A special thank you to our Campus Ministry team, adult retreat leaders and middle school student leaders for modeling what it means to live out our Marist virtues and accompany others in faith. These are the moments when friendships deepen, faith grows and our Marist community truly shines!

At Notre Dame Prep, Campus Ministry is an integral part of middle school life, nurturing students’ faith through retreats, prayer, fellowship, service and peer leadership.

Curious to learn more about how Campus Ministry helps shape the middle school experience at NDP?

Join us for our Middle School Open House on November 10, from 6–8 p.m. Discover how faith, friendship and Marist values come together to form the whole person at Notre Dame Prep!
