Where faith meets you right where you are.

Spirit-filled. Belonging. Head to heart.

CEC is more than a one-time retreat, presenting an opportunity to step away from

everyday routines to reflect upon how your personal life and spiritual journey is going.

As you come on Friday evening as a participant, you will be greeted by other men/women

who have previously attended a CEC weekend and serve to help as the weekend unfolds.
Throughout the weekend, you will hear meaningful talks & personal stories from clergy

and other Christian men/women, as well as engage in fellowship at meals, mass,

self-reflection & group activities. This is NOT a quiet retreat rather one of fun, focus, & fellowship.

You will learn ways to grow in faith and incorporate it into your daily life.

A person can come away with a clearer sense of priorities in life & faith, new friendships,

and a closer relationship with God. Men & Women attend separate weekends.

If married, couples are both encouraged to attend a CEC weekend.

CEC weekends are held 2-3 times per year throughout the greater Omaha area.

All-inclusive cost $150 for food, lodging, & materials. Financial scholarships available.

Fall 2024 Weekends are being held at St. Wenceslaus Church, Cain Hall,

15353 Pacific St, Omaha, NE 68154.

Lodging is at Holiday Inn Express, 17677 Wright St., Omaha NE 68130.

Standard double occupancy. Private rooms available for extra fee. Pre-registration necessary.

What others say...
This was one of the most memorable, beautiful moments of my life. Beyond grateful

for this experience. The love, warmth, acceptance that allowed me to be vulnerable,

and let Christ come into my heart.

There are two ways we can come to know God, intellectually with our mind

and experientially with our heart. Jesus, literally went from my head to my heart,

"in between" this CEC weekend experience AND it has made ALL the difference

in my life & faith, both then and now.

Coming to a CEC retreat has the potential of adding greatly to your eternal reward.

I highly recommend everyone to go on a CEC weekend! I have seen so many change their lives. You owe it to yourself!
