ACTS Women's Retreat

An ACTS retreat is a three day and three night Catholic lay retreat. The retreat begins on Thursday evening and ends the following Sunday at a Mass celebrated with the parish community. Talks and activities during the retreat focus on Adoration, Community, Theology and Service, from which the ACTS program acronym is derived. Holy Scripture and the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church are the guides for the retreats. The retreat takes on the traditions and atmosphere of the parish community sponsoring it. The retreat facilitates the attainment of a new or deeper relationship with the Lord through: Adoration – the call by, acceptance of, and response to God, Community – the love and caring of each other, Theology – the study of God through scripture and the Catholic Faith, Service – to God and his people.
