TRI-FUSION
We've all seen race cars making pit stops for a quick change of tires, and other modifications. Undeniably humans are the same way, especially the youth who live in this fast paced world. Tri-Fusion is an event, lasting approximately two hours, which attempts to bring the participants closer to Christ through Praise and Worship, and culminating into adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. This event is ideal for parishes with a time budget.

CVT GET TOGETHER
The CVT Get Together is an event reserved for CVT leaders and members. This is especially a time of fellowship, a time of undwinding, and a time to get to know other members of CVT. Of course, Jesus still is the main focus, but the atmosphere is more laid back then a traditional retreat. This event usually last three days. If you would like to know more on how to become a member, check out the about us page. see you there.

KAIROS
Kairos is a Jesuit developed retreat designed for junior and senior high school students. It is a time of sharing personal stories and group reflections through which God becomes the center piece of everyday life. Kairos focuses on the here and now. Kairos is God's time.
Kairos was first introduced to the midwest area on November 2001 by Hung Pham, SJ and Hung Lan, SJ and has ever since been adopted by Christ's Vieteen which hosts the retreat annually for CVT youth leaders from areas as far as Texas, Minnesota and Virgina.
The first Kairos for Vietnamese teens in the mid-west was held at the pastoral center on the grounds of Congregation of the Mother Coredemptrix between June 28-30, 2003. In Collaboration with youth leaders from Kansas City and Tulsa OK, more then forty Vietnamese youth gathered together to embark on a three day spiritual journey.
