Retreat Opportunities

Retreat Opportunities

St. Brigid Parish strives to offer retreats and Days of Reflection for families and individuals throughout the year.

We recognize the importance of taking time out of our busy schedules to be renewed in our relationship with the Lord. Parishioners are also encouraged to participate in the many other Retreat opportunities offered throughout our Archdiocese. Many of these are published under Adult Faith Formation “Around the Town” in the parish bulletin.


ACTS Retreats

Renewed in Our Relationship with the Lord

What is an ACTS Retreat?

An ACTS Retreat is a parish-based event which offers parishioners an opportunity to experience the love of Jesus Christ. This in turn fosters a desire for intentional discipleship.

ACTS Retreats are given by parishioners for parishioners, and in this way, serve to build Christian community at the parish. – Taken from www.actsmissions.org

The ACTS community strives to assist members of the parish family to attain a deeper relationship with the Lord and with fellow parishioners through

  • Adoration: Responding through prayer and worship to receiving God’s gifts of grace, mercy and love
  • Community: Living and participating in the One Body of Christ as Church, beginning with the parish
  • Theology: Deepening our relationship with God through prayerful study to better understand and fulfill His will for our lives
  • Service:  Answering the call to discipleship by following the model Christ gave to us

To achieve this goal, a three-day weekend experience is planned for both women and men.

Our next Men ACTS Retreats will be:

February 29 – March 3, 2024 at Omega Retreat Center, Boerne TX

Our next Women ACTS Retreats will be:

September 12-15, 2024 at Omega Retreat Center, Boerne TX

Our next Teen ACTS Retreats will be:

Please let us know if you have ever been on an ACTS Retreat before, either with St. Brigid or another parish, whether your home parish or as a visitor or guest of another parish.

Retreat for Women

This group meets annually at Well Spring Retreat Center. It is a time for women to get away from the normal routine to reflect, enjoy time with others and reconnect in a special way with God.
