Retreat Season Retreat Season “From August to May, we serve Christian organizations of all types and denominations mostly from within the central Texas area.” Written by KAY KASTNER Photographs by MEDIA STAFF Spiritual renewal is a pressing need in our driven culture of today. In the gospels we see that Jesus would often take his disciples away from the crowds to rest, reflect and pray. Camp Tejas is a place where one can come to seek these as well. Whether you come to rest, play, study, pray, gather in fellowship, or to simply make memories, you will find refuge in the beautiful surroundings. Perhaps it has been a long time since you’ve been able to seek and reconnect with your Savior and regain that sense of awe and wonder that renews and energizes. We strive to give our guests the experience they long for and take care of all the details so that you may come and just simply be…in His Presence. Our Retreat Season Everyone needs a place to get away from the distractions of life and reconnect with what is most important. We need a place that does not consume us with burdens and media overload, but refreshes us with a renewed focus on our core purpose in life. It’s not a vacation. It’s a retreat. Purpose The retreat season is from mid-August to the end of May. The camp is open to Christian organizations, churches and individuals as a place to get away from their everyday schedule and strengthen their walk with Christ. We welcome guests every day of the week. Services The following are the major services of Camp Tejas that are provided for each retreat group and managed by our staff.
