YOU ARE INVITED TO A WOMEN’S ACTS RETREAT, May 14 - May 17, 2026

                 "I believe I shall see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living.”  Psalm 27:13

St. Therese of Lisieux Parish            Camp Kerith Retreat Center, Lyman, ME

Looking for some time to breathe, pray, and reconnect? We hope you’ll join us on this year’s ACTS retreat! ACTS is an acronym for Adoration, Community, Theology and Service. We aspire to grow together in faith and friendship as the first Christians did: “Each day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the temple area and to breaking bread in their homes.” Acts 2:46. This retreat  will be an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with the Lord, refresh your soul, and connect with some great ladies. All women age 21 and older are welcome to attend. 

The retreat begins Thursday, May 14, 2026 at 5:30 PM at St. Therese of Lisieux, Sanford ME. Transportation will be provided to the retreat center.  We will return to Holy Family Church on Sunday, May 17, 2026 for the 10:00 AM Mass.  A welcome home reception will follow Mass in the cafeteria of St. Thomas School (across the street from the church).

The total cost of the retreat is $250, and includes transportation, lodging, food, beverage, and lots of activities.  A non-refundable deposit of $50 made payable to St. Therese of Lisieux (please write “ACTS Retreat” in the memo section) must accompany this form to reserve your place.  The remaining balance of $200 will be due at the Thursday evening check-in.  Please Note:  Financial difficulties should not prevent anyone from attending the retreat. Some scholarships are available. Please contact Jess McMahon at 207-636-0088 if you would like to confidentially discuss assistance.
