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 in years past and want to share their personal stories of faith, both highs and lows, 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 of control and just be present in the moment. But rest assured – the weekend is filled with amazing talks, powerful prayer, incredible people, and a TON of fun!
