NET Teams

The work of the NET Teams is the primary activity of NET Ministries. Each year approximately 100 young adults age 18-28 volunteer nine months of their lives to serve on the NET teams. These young adults are placed on nine different teams of 10-12 people.

For nine months, these teams become like family for each other as the travel across the country in a van with a trailer, providing retreats for junior high and high school youth in about 70 dioceses. The teams stay with host homes and usually provide six retreats each week!

For more information on the retreats provided by the NET Teams, visit the NET Retreats page under the Programs section of the website.

To learn about the Teams that just completed the 2007-08 year, visit the team pages for team profiles, and updates from the different dioceses they visited.

Visit the Apply  section of the website to learn more about "life on the road" for the team members.

Where are NET Retreats?
We bring the NET team to your parish!

Why a NET Retreat? Though varying in length, format, and theme, the retreats blend a fun, high-energy retreat experience with a straightfoward Gospel presentation.

Team members proclaim the Gospel through large group talks, small group discussions, music, drama, and personal faith sharings. Each teen on retreat is given the opportunity to respond to Christ in prayer and/or through the Sacraments of Holy Eucharist and Reconciliation.
