Welcome!

Welcome to the WAY Busy Teen Retreat blog site!

Too busy for a retreat away from home this Lent? Join WAY Busy Teen Retreat and have a 4 day retreat experience right from your personal computer!

Lent is so much more than just giving something up - it is an encounter with Jesus Christ and walking with Him through His life and love that we may experience His life and love within us! We are called to spend time with Him this Lent so that we may allow Him to transform us into Himself. This transformation must involve our being crucified with Jesus so that we may rise with Him when we celebrate Easter.

This 4-day Busy Teen Retreat challenge will call you to do just that... walk with Jesus Christ, experiencing His love, in order to unite with Him in His death and resurrection.

Check back on Monday, March 1st for your first retreat instructions.

Happy Lent!
