“It’s amazing how kind and welcoming everyone was. You felt like you could make good friends instantly.”
- Gavin
“I have been up-and-down with my faith throughout my life, and I’m grateful to my friends for looking out for me and inviting me to WANDERER. It was a super powerful experience with so many like-minded, positive individuals. I’m really excited to start this path of getting back in-tune with God and with my faith.”
- Michael, fallen-away Christian now considering OCIA
“We are a young, newly married couple that have been looking to become more involved in our faith and our community. This retreat was an excellent opportunity for us to do so and exceeded our expectations. Tecum Ministries showed a high attention to detail in all aspects of the retreat. The production value, speakers, and small group engagements were all high quality and created an engaging and supportive spiritual environment. We left the retreat highly impressed and spiritually revived. We highly recommend attending Tecum Ministries retreats in the future, and we look forward to their next event.”
- Alec
