HEC has been serving the spiritual needs of adults with special needs on Long Island for over 25 years. 

The Retreat Weekend for adults with physical and/or developmental challenges will be held this year at Camp Alvernia from April 22 to April 25th (Thursday to Sunday).  Coordinator, Michele Barone, is in need of volunteers to assist participants at the weekend. Planning meetings will be held on February 3rd, March 10th, and April 7th at 7 p.m. in St. Francis of Assisi Church in Greenlawn.  Can you donate your time to make this a wonderful Retreat Weekend for the candidates who are ready to encounter Christ?
