- Virtually attend (or watch later) 9 sessions of the C.S. Lewis Retreat while they are happening (Central time). These include.
- All of the plenary lectures (3)
- The artistic performances of Ad Deum Dance Company
- Your choice of 2 breakout sessions (of the 4 that will be streamed)
- Sunday’s Sermon
- Have access to the recordings for three months after the event.
- Be able to invite your friends or family to watch with you during or after.
Technical Requirements
You must have internet access and a computer (desktop or laptop), tablet, or smartphone with a speaker (microphone
not required).
We will be using the SimpleTix website for registration and Zoom for streaming.
Note that all events take place in Central Time, so you will need to adjust for your local time.

event.

Questions
Q: What will I miss by not attending in-person?
A: Great question. Of course you’ll miss the in-person company of our community and the meals. Beyond that, in-person attendees will exclusively be able to:
- Choose between all 10 live breakout sessions (rather than only the 4 filmed for the online attendees)
- Attend the optional evening activities (Bag-End Cafe or Sprinklings)
- Participate in the worship and prayer sessions
- Participate in optional afternoon Camp Allen offered activities (free or at an extra cost) like skeet shooting, horseback riding, and hiking.
- Participate in the labyrinth walk/seminar hosted by Christin Ditchfield Lazo
- Have access to the conference bookstore run by Rebekah Choat
- Fellowship with friends by the fire or outside surrounded by the piny woods around Camp Allen
- Have conversations with the conference speakers and have books signed by them.
Q: What is the time zone for the event?
A: Since we are in Texas, near Houston, the event will take place in Central time.
Q: What if I miss a session? Can I watch it right afterwards?
A: Good question. Because we’ll be streaming live as-it-happens, the videos may not be available to watch until after the conference is over.
However, you will have access to the videos for three months after the conference ends, so you will have plenty of time to watch the sessions if you missed any as well as rewatch with friends or family. Note: The recordings link is for you only. This is the perfect opportunity to host a watch party together!
Q: Will I be on camera during the sessions?
A: Because of the nature of streaming the event at the same time we are hosting it live at Camp Allen, you’ll be participating by watching the sessions as they happen rather than being on camera yourself. You’ll be able to interact by commenting in chat with others on Zoom. So feel free to wear your pajamas, eat meals, and have a cup of your favorite beverage!
(NOTE: please feel free to email schevalier@cslewis.org with further questions. We will add common questions here as we get closer to the event.
