CrossRoad Alumni Retreat a Great Success!
The Office of Vocation & Ministry hosted the first-ever CrossRoad Alumni retreat on the weekend of March 28-30, 2008. Forty-five "all-star" alumni travelled from across the country (and were joined by many of our own Hellenic College student alums) for the weekend, and were on the Hellenic College/Holy Cross campus on Friday for an evening session in the chapel, then went to a retreat center from Friday evening through Sunday morning, and then returned back to HCHC for liturgy at the Chapel Sunday morning. Fr. Thomas Hopko was the keynote speaker, and CrossRoad alumni staff including Mary Long (who is now on staff full time with the OVM, hooray!), Micah Hirschy, Ellie Mellas, Elizabeth Nichols, Thanasi Pantazelos, and George Sarraf attended. Plans are in the making for another CrossRoad alumni retreat in the Spring of 2009.
CrossRoad Parents' Weekend
The first CrossRoad Parents' Weekend took place September 28–30, 2007 on the campus of Hellenic College/Holy Cross. Audio recordings of this weekend are available through the OVM. Find out more.
