D.E.E.P. is an acronym for Discipleship, Eucharist, Evangelization, and Prayer. This retreat was developed to help attendees go "deeper" in their faith, by developing a closer relationship with the Lord, Jesus Christ by focusing on the removal of the vices that stand in the way of that relationship and striving to live the virtues which counteract those vises. There is a strong emphasis on building that relationship with Christ through knowledge of the Catholic Faith, the Sacraments, and the points of the acronym - Discipleship, Eucharist, Evangelization and Prayer.
The D.E.E.P. Retreat is presented by Catholic priests, deacons and religious, with support provided by Catholic laity.
D.E.E.P. originated at the St. Charles Center and is sponsored by the Diocese of Lake Charles. Men's and women's retreats are offered multiple times a year.
