"Music is so powerful that it can unite people with different backgrounds and lifestyles. Jeremy tries to bridge the gap between the "stage" and the "audience" every time he plays, and when you play/conduct people, the Church, into God's presence it becomes a moment of transformation. God inhabits the praises of His people."  He knows how to connect with his audience in bringing them into the presence of God. He also speaks at various Youth Rallies, Conferences and Retreats on topics such as God's Love, the Holy Spirit, and the Saints.

As a musician in the diocese of Austin for over 15 years, Paul's endeavors have been wide and varied-just as he prefers. Experienced in adult and youth retreats, the music selected is tailored to the group present. Guitars, vocals and the beautiful Native American flute are employed to bring praise, worship and meditation. Music selections are often a mix of the modern to the ancient. He brings sensitivity to the needs of the people; well suited for retreat environments.   

Paul would be happy to dialogue with you to discuss your retreat or other event questions.

Deacon Curt Haffner is one of the founders of Eagle's Wings Retreat Center. Developing a retreat center dedicated primarily to the spiritual growth of young people was a calling from God and the results of answering this call are evident at Eagle's Wings. Deacon Curt also had a sense he was being called into serving God in another way. With 6 years of discernment and studying, Deacon Curt was ordained as a deacon with the Diocese of Austin in April of 2013 and is assigned to St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in Marble Falls, Texas. He is available to assist on some retreats by providing talks appropriate for a retreat, leading Adoration and guiding retreatants in spiritual direction.

Please contact him 8 weeks prior to your retreat if you wish to have his assistance.
