TEC (Together in Christ) is a retreat weekend filled with dynamic reflections, music, sacraments, adoration, small group dialogue, and prayer. TEC integrates Christ's Paschal Mystery (dying, rising, and going forth) into the challenges and needs of young adulthood. TEC is specifically geared toward young adults (juniors in high school through early 30's), but all are welcome.
