My ACTS journey began in the fall of 2016.  I had been in the parish for over 27 years and preparing to retire in a couple years.  While I knew many parishioners, I was looking to get more involved in the parish community and to deepen my relationship with God. I had never been to a retreat, did not know what to expect and approached it with a bit of apprehension. It has turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made.  It was a weekend filled with prayer, reflection, community and fun among a group of some of the most wonderful, faith filled women. Since then, I have been on three ACTS teams, the most recent being the director of the current team that is preparing for the Women’s ACTS Retreat at the Mercy Center on September 18-21. Could this be the right time for you to focus on your spiritual life alongside women in your parish community?  Find more info here.
