This is long overdue. I want to start off by saying that KAIROS was the best experience of my life. I've mentioned it to some people I know, and they always ask "...but what IS it?"
Technically, I'm not supposed to talk about it, but I can probably slip in a few tidbits without giving it away. People who know what it is are familiar with the Jesuits. KAIROS literally means "Christ's time". Don't just stop reading after hearing the "C" word, it's not about him. The idea of KAIROS is a bonding experience. Not the stupid kind that leaves everyone bored and at each other's throats, the real kind. Picture this. It's the dead of winter. 50 guys who have gone to school together for 3 years are living in an old Jesuit mansion. They give you food, and provide wakeup calls, but you basically get to sit and talk and play football in the snow for 4 days.
Admittedly, I was a skeptic at first. I went because it was 4 das without parents or homework. It ended up being much more. We had (believe it or not) actual conversations about our lives, our secrets, our plans, we got to know our friends that we saw every day in a totally new light. So to anyone who has the chance to go on KAIROS, don't pass it up, don't write it off. It's the greatest.
Doubt the 1st,
Cry the 2nd,
Trust the 3rd,
Live the Fourth.
