ACTS Retreat
Anyone who’s attended an ACTS retreat will testify to the powerful impact it's had on their life – without giving away too many details. Just to give you an idea, ACTS stands for Adoration, Community, Theology, and Service – so each of these is highlighted during your retreat. It’s an opportunity to renew your spirituality and prayer life, build lasting friendships among members of your parish community, and strengthen your faith and relationship with God. Both retreats are presented by IW women’s and men’s teams of parishioners.
