Retreat Leaders

a group of students smiling

Each spring Campus Ministry recruits passionate students to serve as retreat leaders for the following academic year. Retreats are a time when members of our community can step away from the daily grind of campus life and experience the divine out at LUREC. On retreats, leaders serve in a variety of capacities – building community, facilitating small groups, giving talks, and supporting participants. Consider sharing your gifts in this meaningful way!

Requirements

Leadership experience, experience with small group reflection, strong interpersonal skills.

Previous Campus Ministry retreat experience is preferred but not required for the Loyola 360, Transfer, LEAF, FCC, and Ignite. 

Our desire is for Search Retreat leaders to have either been on Search at Loyola or a retreat similar to Search in high school.

Student Director applicants should have previously been a leader on the retreat they are hoping to direct. We will accept Student Director applications from rising juniors, seniors, and fifth-years.

The 25-26 Leader Application is closed. Please reach out to retreat@luc.edu to ask about waitlist opportunities. 

Retreat Leader Recruitment Timeline: 

  • Application Open: 2/23/26
