This semester, Canterbury at TTU will be hosting three date night fundraisers to help fundraise for a summer retreat. The summer retreat's theme is "Finding Our True Selves in God" and will take place in the San Antonio area, close to Kerrville.
While these events are called "date nights," friends and loved ones are encouraged to sign up. Any size of group can be accommodated up to 16 people.
Dinner will be served at Canterbury at 6pm, and childcare will last from 5:45pm-10:00pm and will be held in the St. Paul's nursery across the street from Canterbury.
