Adoration Community Theology Service (A.C.T.S.)
An ACTS retreat is a parish weekend retreat patterned after the description of the early Church in the Acts of the Apostles (ACTS 2:42-47); breaking bread together, worshipping together, receiving instruction together, sharing in common, and reaching out in loving service. The goal of the retreat is to strengthen faith and its application in daily life, provide spiritual renewal and build lasting friendships through community and service.
