"I've never heard Jesus speak to me as He did during the ACTS retreat....and that's coming from a cradle Catholic."
--Will Lutrell
"My weekend reminded me why I love so much our Catholic faith. Few things are as spiritually powerful as men praying and singing together."
--Stephen Reel
"ACTS caused me to focus on Jesus Christ and what he meant to me. I have always been catholic and realized that I was not connected to my fellow Catholics. I attended ACTS and developed a bond with all fellow Catholics. Made a great difference in attending church and the closeness to my Brothers and Sisters. I have become a much better person who studies my faith, contribute and serve my fellow man, attend Adoration, work hard to develop community. I believe I am a much better man now since I attended ACTS."
--Ken Perry
We meet at Christ the King at 5:30pm on March 4th and return for 12:15pm Mass on March 7th.

Round trip transportation will be provided for all retreatants. You may park your car in the north parking lot on Guilford, using the far north and far east spaces on the perimeter of the lot. Please do not park in the yellow lined spaces in the center of the lot, as this will obstruct school dismissal on Friday.
