Upcoming Events

Over Fall Break, students from Saint Mary’s University are invited to participate in the academic year’s first S.O.U.L. trip to Milwaukee and Racine, Wisconsin.

Participants will learn about sustainable and urban growing at Growing Power, Inc. for two days in Milwaukee.  They will then transition to Racine, Wisconsin, working at an eco-justice farm and in transitional housing project–two sponsored ministries of the Racine Dominicans.

We plan to depart on Friday after classes and return to Winona Tuesday afternoon.

From the TEC Conference:

• A TEC weekend encounter is a three day encounter consisting of a series of meditations, discussions, sacramental liturgies and para-liturgies, as well as time for socializing, singing, reflection and recreation.

• TEC is a wonderful opportunity to take a break from the routine and time pressures of everyday life while providing an occasion to look at one’s life, relationship with God, goals and growth as a Christian.

• TEC is an experience of the Paschal Mystery of Jesus Christ as the Church has her people live that experience in the Lent-Easter-Pentecost experience and liturgies.
