Event Details
Our LONG retreat this spring will be just like our October LONG retreat. Â The first half of the retreat will take place at St. William. Â Then the second half will take place at the Oaklands Amenity Center (700 Oak Park Drive, 78681)
THE FIRST HALF - @ St. William
The retreat will begin with the 12:15 mass in the main church. After mass, you may join the in first Friday Eucharistic procession to the adoration chapel. Â After the procession we will meet near the large oak outside the main entrance of the church. Â We will be heading to the PEC Patio and Courtyard for an outdoor lunch and games.
At 2pm we will head inside to the PEC Auditorium to hear a talk by Fr. Sam Bass, Parochial Vicar at St. Margaret Mary in Cedar Park.
Then we will end our time at St. William with adoration at the sacred heart chapel until 3:45pm. Â Please note that adoration will not be guided and confession may be offered if a priest is available.
THE SECOND HALF - @ Oaklands Amenity Center
At 4:00pm  we will start shuttling teens to the nearby Oaklands Amenity Center (700 Oak Park Drive, 78681).  Teens who drove themselves will be asked to drive to the amenity center.  EIM Chaperones who are ending their first shift and beginning their second shift will assist in shuttling the teens to the amenity center.  If you would like to shuttle your own teen  or help shuttle other teens to the amenity center, please arrive by 4:00 pm at the sacred heart chapel.
The second half of the retreat is a fun pizza party and more relaxed time for the teens to hang out together. Â Feel free to bring an instrument or board game to play together after dinner. Â We will also have access to a tennis court/pickle ball court/basketball court. Â So bring any sports balls you might need.
