You don’t need to have all the answers.

You don’t need to know everyone.

You don’t need to be the “church kid.”

You don’t need to have a perfect relationship with God.

You just need to show up.

TEC is for the teen who’s searching.
The teen who’s struggling.
The teen who’s thriving.
The teen who just wants a fun weekend with great people.

No matter where you’re at in life, there’s a place for you at TEC #51.

📅 July 30 – August 1
📍 Tulare Community Church

Come as you are.

Nobody ever says:

“I wish I hadn’t gone to TEC.”

But every year there are people who say:

“I almost didn’t sign up.”

They almost missed the friendships.
They almost missed the memories.
They almost missed the chance to see what God had planned for them.

If you’ve been thinking about TEC #51, this is your sign to stop thinking about it and just go.

You never know what God can do in three days.

📅 July 30 – August 1
