EXCEL RETREAT
WHAT IS EXCEL?
EXCEL is a teen-led retreat for high school students that builds your personal relationship with Christ while giving you an opportunity to share your faith and grow with your peers. All the talks on the weekend are given by high school seniors who have been on the retreat before and want to share their personal stories of faith with you.
WHAT HAPPENS ON EXCEL?
One of the best parts of this retreat is that you do not know what is going to happen! We keep all the details of the weekend secret in order to allow you to let go and be present in the moment. Rest assured, though, that the weekend is full of amazing talks, powerful prayer, incredible people, and a ton of fun!
WHERE DOES EXCEL TAKE PLACE?
We hold EXCEL at Camp Don Bosco in Carnation, WA. Don Bosco is a camp owned by the Archdiocese of Seattle; it’s a beautiful place to spend the weekend!
WHO CAN GO ON EXCEL?
EXCEL is open to all 9-12th graders in the Eastside Deanery! Priority is given to teens who have never been on the retreat, but all are welcome and encouraged to sign up to be a part of the retreat!
WHAT DOES EXCEL COST?
The registration fee for EXCEL is $— . This covers all transportation, housing, supplies, and food for the weekend. Scholarships are available, so contact Cathleen for a scholarship application.
