We will help provide a fun activity combined with Catholic curriculum and custom retreat programs, that can include high ropes adventure course, zip lines, or low ropes team-building Centered around the Catholic Schools’ Theme – One Body in Christ. Provide a 20 minute group processing following the activity and follow up discussion questions that can be brought back to school.
It begins in relational ministry. The goal is to invite the participant into a fun, safe, and accepting community. This allows for trust, which is essential. If we don’t trust, then we don’t open up the story of our lives.
Rich and intentional prayer form a chiasm, drawing attention to the participant’s personal experience while situating everything that occurs in their experience within the context of prayer.
To frame an experience, the participant needs to see themselves as a character in the story being experienced. Here their story takes on the context of the Christian story. The hope of salvation, the witness of the saints, and the struggle to live holiness offer great avenues to set up the experience.
In the experience, we see the participants face their direct problem. Their challenge is set before them, and both outcomes – success or failure – are real options.
Learning takes place when we decompress our experiences, reflecting on what we did and what we can learn. Here the participants walk through the questions of what they did, why they did it, and what they can do to grow.
Adventure catechesis is not simply teaching Christian faith principles and having fun. Adventure Catechesis is a process that invites participants to see themselves as part of Christ and His Church. It involves real relationships, not just technique. It begins with openness and curiosity about the faith. It utilizes adventure activities to help participants connect their stories with the Christian narrative and then calls them to action. Adventure Catechesis is meant to send participants out to grow as disciples and make disciples of Christ.
Team building just hit a new level with our 13 elements high ropes coarse, leading participants through a series of challenges designed for fun and growth.
Enjoy the wild ride on our zip lines. We have 3 zip lines, two are 300 feet long and one is 800 feet long. The shorter zip lines are perfect when time is limited, you will launch from the first level platform across a small ravine and creek, then ruturn on the second zip line. When more time is allotted you can ride the long zip line and dissapear into the trees launching from the top of the highest point on our platform.
Step off a platform into an unrestricted free fall before being softly caught and lowered to the ground. Good activity for building trust and confidence.
Don’t overlook this challenging, fun, and dynamic piece of our course. Our team loves low ropes! With 8 elements, team building takes on a whole new level of depth at low ropes. We also have portable lawn elements available for use during your retreat. See which elements you can conquer with balance and strength
This is great for sports teams, corporate teams, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, School Staffs, and so much more.
