Basic Christian Community of Hawaii Adult Spiritual Retreat Aug 14-16, 2026

Step away from the busyness of life and reconnect with your faith at our upcoming Young Adult Catholic Retreat, themed "Gathered at Table." Join us for a weekend of inspiring talks, meaningful fellowship, and shared meals at Saint Anthony Retreat Center. It's the perfect opportunity to deepen your spiritual journey, build lasting friendships, and break bread together.

What to Expect:

• Dynamic Talks: Relevant discussions connecting our Catholic faith with everyday young adult life.
• Community: Opportunities to meet other young adults, share stories, and grow in fellowship.
• Prayer & Sacraments: Daily Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and time for personal reflection and reconciliation.
• Shared Meals: Engaging the retreat's theme through community dining and conversations.

Taking place in the cool hills of Kalihi Valley where the beauty of nature abounds, retreatants will be offered a space for prayer, reflection, and connection with the teachings of the Catholic faith in a loving Christian community.

Located deep in the valley of the Koolau mountain range, Basic Christian Community of Hawaii (BCCH) offers a two-night retreat for men and women led by spiritual directors, the Very Reverend Msgr. Gary Secor of the Diocese of Honolulu, and Sr. Meristella Umdor, a Missionary Sister of Mary Help of Christians. Retreatants come to enjoy the natural beauty of the peaceful location, and the freedom from modern distractions. Since 1985, BCCH has welcomed guests to experience true Christian community, found in song, prayer, witness talks, educational and reflective experiences, and small faith-sharing groups. This retreat is ideal for anyone seeking to find peace this Lent in expectant faith for a true relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
