Boiler Awakening

Boiler Awakening is a prayerful and peaceful retreat experience like none other, bringing you closer to Christ, your faith goals, and the Purdue Catholic Students community. Join this 3-day, 2-night event starting on Friday evening, Oct. 22 and continuing through 7:00 p.m. Sunday Mass on October 24. The retreat is hosted at Lafayette Central Catholic, just across the river from Purdue. Please reach out to awakening@boilercatholics.org if you have any questions.

Boiler Awakening is a student-led, Catholic awakening retreat welcoming of all undergraduate and graduate students seeking to strengthen their relationship with Christ. Our student leaders strive to contribute their gifts and talents to empower participants in perpetually owning their faith and creating a life-long passion for involvement in the faith community. The weekend includes a variety of talks, activities, and reflections designed to allow each retreatant to be “awakened” to the Holy Spirit within them. The retreat concludes on Sunday with the “source and summit” of our Catholic faith, the celebration of the Mass. BA is a truly heartwarming weekend that leaves us with a strong, but a loving reminder of God’s presence in our lives.
