The Penn Newman Center offers Roman Catholic students at the University of Pennsylvania, and those in the Penn community who may want to learn from our rich Catholic tradition, a variety of spiritual retreats throughout the academic year. Each retreat is designed to help one to grow in their love for Jesus Christ and for a deepened awareness of the sacred presence of God in their lives and in the world. Our retreats eagerly embrace the MOTTO of the Penn Newman Center, which is to SHARE GOD’S LOVE, MERCY and TRUTH!
