Welcome back to our Saint Meinrad alumni!

The dates for the 2019 Saint Meinrad Alumni Reunion are Sunday, July 21 – Wednesday, July 24, 2019

Whether you are celebrating a special class anniversary, catching up with classmates and professors, or wanting to spend some time in prayer and reflection, we hope you enjoy your time back home.

Visit our website for more information about the reunion, see a schedule of events and register online.

Each summer, Saint Meinrad hosts several “One Bread, One Cup” gatherings.

“One Bread, One Cup” is a five-day liturgical leadership conference focusing on the Word, Sacrament and Mission of the Roman Catholic Church for high school youth groups and their campus and youth ministers. Conferences focus on community building, leadership development, catechesis, liturgical and spiritual formation, and theological reflection and participants will enjoy opportunities for fellowship and fun through team building, outdoor recreation, a variety show and a dance. High school youth participants must have completed 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade.

Participants come to appreciate the Benedictine balance of prayer, work and recreation. During our conferences, attendees learn to use their God-given talents in liturgical ministry during formation sessions, then take those skills back to their parishes.
