ATRIUM - Course Information

About this Program

This program will not be offered in 2026. In 2027 Introduction to Philosophy and Theology will be offered.

This program is for supernumeraries who have recently finished their initial formation. It is offered during specific courses throughout the year. The program will take three years to complete and provides basic philosophical foundations.

The word philosophy means 'love of wisdom'. In Philosophy, human reason, drawing on all rational knowledge, searches for the ultimate causes and meaning of things, the foundation of being. Philosophy provides the basic principles necessary to study theology in later courses.

   RETREAT INFORMATION

About Retreats

It’s important to take the time to invest in some spiritual renewal. A retreat is an opportunity to get closer to God and develop a relationship with Him.

​Retreats are held over a few days and include Holy Mass, meditations (guided prayer by a priest in front of the Blessed Sacrament), talks by a lay person, Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, recitation of the Rosary as well as time for personal prayer and reflection.

Throughout the retreat the priest is available for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. There is also opportunity for personal spiritual direction.

All retreats listed are conducted by priests of Opus Dei, a Personal Prelature of the Catholic Church.
