Welcome Letter

Men,

We are looking forward to the upcoming 2024 BRAVE Men's Ministries Conference. Read below for the details that may be helpful as you prepare over the next couple of weeks. 

Important Messages from the Team 

Registrants must fill out this waiver form before arriving to the retreat.

Registrants are responsible for their own ride, however, if you need a ride or if you can give a ride, please click here to visit the carpooling tool.

Message from Tejas Camp and Retreat: We are asking everyone to arrive through our Bus Entrance for the ease of parking well and keeping cars going the same direction on the road. The Bus Entrance is located down the hill from our main gate. We are actually transitioning to using that entrance as the “front gate”. Then the gate that has the Tejas sign at it will be the exit gate. The best place to find this is the map on our website at the bottom right corner. Tejas staff will be there to meet you and your guests, help everyone get parked, and deliver luggage to their accommodations if needed. If anyone needs to use the main gate (the one with the sign) the code for your group is 1224.

Schedule

    • Check-in will begin at 4:00 PM on Thursday, November 14, 2024, followed by dinner and the evening session.

      • If you run into problems during your travels that result in your arriving in the middle of the night, don't worry... we'll have a place for you. Once you drive into the Retreat Center please call or text one of these numbers 832-512-0674 or 512-537-2767.
