Living the Lasallian Mission:
The Servant Leader Experience
at Dunrovin Retreat Center
Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota | www.dunrovin.org
At Dunrovin Retreat Center, the Servant Leader Team—known as LEAD
Immersion—brings the Lasallian principle of education as lived ministry to
life. Over an eleven-month commitment, young adults dedicate themselves
to learning, serving, and growing in faith through a unique blend of retreat
ministry, community life, and hands-on leadership training.
Every day becomes both classroom and chapel. Team members guide
youth retreats, offering hospitality, reflection, and witness. Under the
mentorship of experienced leaders, they gain essential career and life skills—
communication, stewardship, teamwork, and financial responsibility—all
seen through the lens of service. Workshops on practical skills like cooking,
budgeting, and collaboration help participants see that ministry extends far
beyond the retreat center: it takes shape in daily acts of service, responsibility,
and respect for others.
The program’s heart is spiritual formation. Through prayer, shared reflection,
and one-on-one faith coaching, participants discover that their growth
is itself a ministry. They learn to see God’s presence in every task, from
leading a retreat to setting the table, from mentoring a student to managing
time wisely.
At Dunrovin, education is not just preparation for life—it is life. In the
Servant Leader Team, ministry is not confined to worship or teaching but
lived daily, transforming ordinary work into a sacred act of love and service.
Teen Leaders offer encouragement to students as they work through team building
challenges together.
