Milk & Honey: A Theology of the Body for Me and Mommy is for mothers and their daughters 9-12 years old. It is a one-day retreat where they come to learn and understand the dignity of their femininity, explore their growing and changing bodies through the exterior and interior workings of the fertility cycle, and learn modesty as a virtue not only for themselves, but for society as a whole.
Since 2019, the St. Peter Respect Life Committee has hosted 394 girls and young women at retreats led by Samantha Kelley, the Founder and President of FIERCE Athlete (fierceathlete.org), who is trained in teaching the Theology of the Body. Wonderfully Made: A Theology of the Body Retreat for High School Girls introduces teens to the St. Pope John Paul II’s Theology of the Body and what it means for their lives. Wonderfully Made 2: The Story Continues is a retreat for young adult women that addresses a deeper, more mature understanding of Theology of the Body.
