You are invited to join us for a spiritually uplifting weekend. Set aside some time for God and yourself. Get away from your usual busy schedule and join men like yourself who are seeking God's answers to life, family, and eternity. This weekend is an opportunity to strengthen your faith, renew yourself spiritually, and create friendships with some awesome men. All men age 21 and older are invited to attend. 

The purpose of the ACTS weekend is to Invite the retreatants into a new or deeper relationship with the Lord and with other faithful men through Adoration and daily prayer;  Community awareness as a member of the Body of Christ; Theology encouraging more study of our faith and God’s Word; and promoting the virtue of Service to our Lord and one another.

The retreat will begin on Thursday with evening check-in. Transportation will be provided to and from the Retreat Center in Winthrop, Maine. We will return on Sunday with a Homecoming Mass.

ACTS has impacted the lives of many POTHE/OLH parishioners.  Below is a testimony from one retreatant.

 I agreed to attend the ACTS Retreat with no expectations as it was my first retreat.
 Right before the retreat I started thinking of
reasons not to go and almost pulled out the night prior. I went kicking and
screaming to the rally point just knowing I would not enjoy or embrace whatever I
was going to. I make a living out of information and I had none to go by, I
was uncomfortable that I wasn't in control. A diverse group of gentlemen boarded the bus looking nervous as well; this clearly wasn't for me. On the trip down It dawned on me
that it was only a few days and certainly in my years in the military I had experienced much worse. "Okay Lord, I will be open to your will and will do this." 
I had no idea how those days would change my life.
God spoke to me at the retreat; after so many years, I finally listened. God blessed me with many gifts that weekend and my soul was on fire. I saw Jesus in a way I never had before. Every time I thought it couldn't get any better, it did, and the gifts just kept coming. I finally felt like I was able to "take out the trash."  I was at peace. I returned a changed man, more
tolerant, more happy, more on fire with the Spirit and again more at peace. If you ever have the opportunity to attend an ACTS Retreat, just say "yes." You will be happy you did!  PR
