ACTS

If you need to re-energize your faith, check out an ACTS Retreat! This is a three day and three night Catholic lay retreat presented by fellow members of our diocese. The retreat begins on Thursday evening and ends on Sunday at a Mass celebrated with the diocesan community. Talks and activities during the retreat focus on Adoration, Community, Theology, and Service, from with the ACTS acronym is derived. Holy Scripture and the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church are the guides for the retreats. The retreat facilitates the attainment of a new or deeper relationship withe 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

Each retreat is conducted by a retreat "team" composed of 20-30 individuals who have attended prior ACTS retreats.  Chosen by the retreat director, the team organizes the retreat, conducts the retreat talks and activities, and ministers to the needs of the retreatants during the retreat weekend.  For more information, check out the A.C.T.S. Diocese of Amarillo website.

ACTS retreats are held at the Bishop DeFalco Retreat Center in Amarillo.
