TEC is a 3-day retreat experience for high school juniors and seniors. TEC is a time to unplug from our overly plugged-in world and connect with your faith away from the noise and distraction of your everyday life. It’s a place for older teens and young adults to reflect on where they are in life and where they’re going and where God fits in through talks, skits, art, music, sacraments and fellowship. TEC is also open to adult observers.


BELLEVILLE TEC (TEENS ENCOUNTER CHRIST)


Do you remember the Teens Encounter Christ (TEC) Catholic retreat program?  Are you a teenager or young adult (age 17 or older) who is looking for an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with Jesus Christ?  Have you ever experienced a TEC retreat and would like one of your loved ones to have the same opportunity?  Are you a youth leader who is looking for a retreat program to offer to your Christian youth community?  Are you just looking for an opportunity to help share your faith with the young people of the Belleville Diocese?  If you answered yes to any of these questions, please contact the Belleville Diocesan TEC board for additional information about upcoming retreat weekends.
