The retreat was made possible through the dedication of 94 senior leaders and the servant leadership of rectors Rocky Ventura '26 and Joseph Akalaonu '26, who also shared inspiring talks on the theme Believe. The freshmen also heard powerful witness talks from Ms. Tylee Resetich (Belong) and Fr. Mike Joyce, O.Carm., Carmelite Vocations Director (Become), before concluding the day with Mass and the reception of the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. We are grateful to all those who assisted with this day to help us pass on the legacy, traditions, and values of Carmel Catholic to the Class of 2029!
