General Information
ACTS is a parish-based retreat in which parishioners serve parishioners. The ACTS Retreat, an acronym for Adoration, Community, Theology and Service, began in the 1980’s in San Antonio, Texas. The retreat’s goals are to strengthen our faith and its application in our daily life, to renew ourselves spiritually, to build strong, lasting friendships, and to grow in our relationship with our Lord, our parish and one another. The ACTS weekend is presented by lay Catholics, with support provided by a Spiritual Director/companion or clergy. Parishioners who serve on ACTS retreats strive to provide the opportunity for our parish community to experience, become, and share the Body of Christ. Once parishioners attend a St. Pius X Parish ACTS Retreat, they can help serve in future retreats. Please consider this wonderful gift for yourself or someone you love.
Are you interested in deepening your faith and finding a community of faith to help support you on your faith journey? If so, consider attending a St. Pius X ACTS Retreat. Typically held twice a year for both men and women, the retreats begin Thursday evenings with check-in at 5:00 p.m. Retreatants return on Sunday in time for Mass.
Registration for a retreat opens a few months before it is scheduled to take place, usually at noon on Sundays. Registration remains open until all spots have been filled. Those interested may register online by filling out an application. Registration links will be published in St. Pius X’s bulletin, website and/or Facebook.
The cost is $300.00 per person. Payment instructions are given to those who are accepted into the retreat. For more information, call the Parish Office at 337-232-4656 or contact one of the ACTS volunteers referenced on this page.
