Teens Encounter Christ (TEC) is a three day/two night experience in Christian living. It is designed for high school Juniors through young adults who are interested in a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.

TEC retreats are led by teams of lay and religious volunteers who are guided by the Belleville TEC organization and a greater National TEC Conference.

Parents, those who work with or volunteer with youth, and interested adults are also encouraged to participate in this renewal weekend as an "observer".

TEC is held at various parishes/schools throughout the Belleville Diocese. The retreat takes place from Saturday at 10am to Monday at 5pm and must be experienced in its entirety. Most TEC retreats are held on 3-day weekends to accommodate school and work schedules. A TEC retreat can accommodate up to 35 participants.
