CEW

"I didn't know the depth my faith life could have until I came to know this CEW community." - 2022 Attendee

Christian Experience Weekend, or CEW, is a spiritual renewal weekend for adults 18 and older. CEW has been hosting retreats since 1974 and changing lives! 

The Lincoln Highway CEW sponsors a men and women's weekend each year in the beautiful setting at Pilgrim Heights Retreat Center in central Iowa. St. Francis of Assisi Parish in Marshalltown provides leadership over the administration of the retreat.
