After the retreat, participants are expected to do two things: 1) expand their own inner spiritual life, and 2) become more active apostles of Christ. The "after" activity of the retreat is known as "Beyond TEC." Beyond TEC actually lasts throughout the remainder of our lives on earth.
Perseverance is a part of any method of renewal. In the TEC movement, the community spirit is continued after the initial three days through gatherings and community nights. Gatherings are times of reflection, sharing, and prayer in a small group setting. Community nights are fellowship meetings of the TEC community, which may be sleep-overs, picnics, pool parties and cookouts, or other planned activities. Attendance at gatherings and community nights is voluntary, but it is encouraged and essential for renewal.
