Annual Fall Retreat

The Muslim Life Fall Retreat is a 3-day retreat that takes place over Fall Break in Hot Springs, VA. The Retreat is an opportunity for students to step away from regular routines on campus and into simple settings in nature. It provides a time and space for reflection, spiritual nourishment, and community bonding. Activities include nightly reflections, hikes in the nearby George Washington and Jefferson National Forest, zip lining, horse-back riding, and a soak in the natural hot springs. All costs are covered by the Chaplaincy.

The Retreat is co-led by Waleed, Muslim Chaplain, and Mahreen, Muslim Life Program Coordinator. The group leaves for Retreat on the Friday of Fall Break after Jumuʿah and returns that Monday afternoon.

Registration for the Fall Retreat opens in August. In the meantime we invite you to see photos from previous retreats.
