RELIGIOUS LIFE

CAMPUS MINISTRY

Religious experiences beyond the classroom are integral to RCHS with the goal of preparing young Catholic men and women to assume roles of service and leadership within the Catholic Church.  Experiences are open to all students, as approximately thirty percent of Routt students are not Catholic.  Experiences may include school Masses, prayer services, para-liturgical services, opportunities for reconciliation, speakers, religious counseling, vocation days, service projects, etc.  Students also may have the opportunity to go to Washington, D.C., on the March for Life trip.

RETREATS

The theology staff and lay leaders plan a day-long experience.  TEC (Teens Encounter Christ) is offered monthly through Springfield and Quincy TEC.  TEC is an experience in Christian living and begins on Saturday a.m. and continues through Monday p.m.  Catholic Athletes For Christ (CAC) is another program for high school student athletes to share their Catholic faith.
