The TEC retreat (Teens Encounter Christ) is hosted by the Archdiocese of Kansas City inTEC Kansas and is a nationwide retreat that was started in 1965.  Since then thousands of young Catholics have delved deeper into their faith and come away with a better understanding of who they are and who they want to be.  The next TEC weekend is August 11-13 at Prairie Star Ranch.  For more information and the application check out the ArchKCK website.
