"Through Christus Ministries, I have found genuine, honest friendships that will be alive and deep for the next 30 years. I have a community of people who are truly invested in building a home for young adults in the Catholic Church."

[Casa Building] has helped me understand that we should in our lifetime do the most we can for the lives of others.

“I discovered another layer of love, which is much more deep, stable, and meaningful …”

After the Caritas Retreat, I returned to Sunday Mass after a long hiatus. There is now a gentle stir deep in my belly to seek God, and to belong to him. My heart is opened to greater community.
 
I have found peace within myself through forgiveness and self worth. I have fallen more deeply in love with God and my faith. My church community has become my support system.

“Our hearts were at a fragile state where we had torn each other apart, living in a false sense of love. The Caritas Retreat revealed and healed so much, building our hearts anew and showing us a greater sense of what loving really means." 

“How I understand love will never be the same.”

I felt like I was tasting Catholicism in a new way. Continue experiencing my journey to God as a community.

"IT HAS BEEN A HUGE IMPACT ON MY ROAD TO HEALING...i don't think i would still be in the church if it wasn't for caritas." 

I have found peace within myself through forgiveness and self worth. I have fallen more deeply in love with God and my faith. My church community has become my support system.

"I'M A LOGICAL PERSON. I'VE REALIZED I DON'T HAVE TO UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING, I CAN JUST LIVE IN GOD'S LOVE FOR ME." 

"CARITAS HAS HELPED ME TO LOVE MYSELF AND TRULY SEE MYSELF AS A BELOVED CHILD OF GOD."
