Retreats and Catholic Life

Retreats are a cornerstone of Bishop Kearney. We dedicate time for every student to step away from their daily routines and immerse themselves in a reflective environment to gain a deeper understanding of themselves.

List of 5 items.

Middle School Retreat

This half-day retreat for grades 6–8 encourages team building and strengthening bonds with classmates.
Awakenings (Freshmen)

Students discover the BK school spirit by connecting with classmates in the 8-hour evening school takeover retreat. We use every part of BK for this fun and reflective student-led retreat, so our students learn about what it means to be a BK student.
Discovery (Sophomore)

This one-day retreat is held at Camp Stella Maris. This retreat dives into personal journeys to make a clear path for the future.
Kairos (Juniors)

Many students describe this 3-day/2-night retreat as a life-changing experience. Through self-reflection and community building, you develop lasting friendships, strengthen your spirituality, and renew your passion for serving others.
Fourth (Seniors)

Your final overnight retreat solidifies friendships and offers closure as you prepare for the next chapter of your life.

The retreat program at BK is a chance to get to know your peers on a deeper level, build connections and friendships that’ll last a lifetime. Getting to lead retreats is a chance to share your personal journey with those who can connect with you more than they know.

Monthly School Masses and Liturgies

Rooted In Traditions

At Bishop Kearney, our commitment to Catholic values and traditions is woven into the fabric of daily life, enriching the educational experience and nurturing the spiritual growth of our students and community. While rooted in Catholic traditions, we embrace and respect other faith traditions, promoting an inclusive environment where all are welcome.
Monthly Mass

We celebrate Mass monthly, ensuring that spiritual nourishment is a regular part of our school routine, with additional services held on Holy Days. Students have the privilege of seeing familiar faces from their local parishes as visiting priests join us to celebrate Mass. Occasionally, we are honored by the presence of The Most Reverend Salvatore Matano, Bishop of the Diocese of Rochester, enriching our spiritual experiences.
Student Participation and Family Involvement

Our students actively participate in various roles such as altar servers, readers, gift bearers, and musicians, fostering a sense of ownership and engagement in our liturgical celebrations. Families are always welcome to join us in these celebrations, fostering a strong sense of community and togetherness.
Special Events

Throughout the year, we invite families to deepen their faith, together with our students, by hosting a Family Mass during Catholic Schools Week, A family Advent Gathering in December, and Stations of the Cross during Lent.
