TEC Beliefs and Practices

Southern Minnesota TEC is an ecumenical Christian ministry that is not affiliated with a specific Christian denomination. We believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our salvation, and that through faith in Jesus Christ, we are saved from our sins.

Southern Minnesota TEC welcomes anyone, regardless of religious affiliation, to attend a TEC retreat. Many youth come to TEC from various Christian denominations, while some youth who attend are not affiliated with a denomination nor a church. All are welcome to attend.

Southern Minnesota TEC celebrates Holy Communion and welcomes anyone with a faith in Jesus Christ to the table.

We minister God's agape love and His son's sacrifice on the cross. TEC is meant to be an addition to regular activity in a local congregation and works to promote those who are not part of a local congregation to seek one out and become active in a congregation and youth group.
