The three days of retreat were devoted to prayer and meditation. Each day started with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, followed by conferences, re- citation of the rosary, spiritual reading, the Way of the Cross, and closed with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. In addition to the religious aspect of each day, we enjoyed good food, pleasant walks, and associ- ation with wonderful sisters and priests. Through this spiritual experience the senior students were brought closer to Mary, the Hope of the World, and her Divine Son, the Prince of Peace. - Girls enter Cor Maria for a conference.
