"The JRC provided a safe space where I could be my true authentic self. Kairos [retreat] helped me to discern a lot, especially in my faith life. And I think glorifying God for me looks like this: being honest about my story, using what I have been through to connect with others"

[Jesuit Retreat Center @jrccleveland]

"...and trusting that who I am right now is enough"
- Lexi Perciak, past Kairos retreatant.

The Jesuit Retreat Center gives people of all ages a safe and meaningful place to grow in faith, share their story and feel accepted as their true selves.

On June 1, Fr. Paul O’Connor, SJ captured this stunning 22-degree halo above the Jesuit Retreat Center.

This ring of light forms when sunlight passes through ice crystals high in the atmosphere. A beautiful reminder that ordinary days can hold unexpected wonder.
