Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

We are reaching out to ask for your prayers and support for a fellow ACTS family whose home was recently lost in a fire. They have served our community and attended ACTS retreats, and now they could use our love and support during this difficult time.

If you are able, I invite you to consider making a donation through the GoFundMe link below. No gift is too small, and your prayers are just as meaningful.

Thank you for your generosity and for being the hands and feet of Christ.

Dear Parish Community,

The Women’s ACTS Retreat is fast approaching, and we ask for your prayers for both the ACTS team and the retreatants joining our community.

The first send-off activity, the Passing of the Candle ceremony, will take place on Wednesday, February 25, 2026. We encourage the entire community to come together as one body in Christ for this very special evening in which we will raise our Sisters up to our Lord most high as they receive the candle and blessing from the previous ACTS Directors Retreat Team.

We will gather as a community in the Garden of St. Ferdinand Church at 6:25 PM to prepare and practice songs, including the theme song, “Woman at the Well.” Please wear your blue ACTS shirt or something blue to if you don’t have one. We want our sisters to feel our love and support as we come together as a community forming “one body in Christ our Lord.”

We thank you for you participation and look forward to seeing you.
