Spanish Women's ACTS
We had our first solo Women's ACTS retreat in Spanish in OCT. 2021 at Camp Latgawa, in Eagle Point, OR. We were the first in Oregon to have a Spanish ACTS retreat. Until then, our retreats have been in English and bilingual. We had been working towards it in early Spring of 2020 with a full team and a full group of retreatants, just a few weeks from the retreat. We came back with most of the original team and committed retreatants, even during Covid. God blessed us and protected us. We did not have one sickness of any sort, and we had a blessed retreat with a group of women, filled with the Spirit, renewed in their relationship with Christ, who now have started and attend a Spanish bible studies on Fridays and are doing liturgical ministries in our Spanish masses. Praise be to God.
Our next Women's ACTS retreat will be in English and will be in the Spring of 2023. It will be hosted by Our Lady of the Mountain. Stay tuned for details!!
ACTS De Mujeres en Español
Tuvimos nuestro primer retiro ACTS de mujeres solistas en español en OCT. 2021 en Camp Latgawa, en Eagle Point, Oregón. Fuimos los primeros en Oregón en tener un retiro ACTS en español. Hasta entonces, nuestros retiros han sido en inglés y bilingües. Estuvimos trabajando para lograrlo a principios de la primavera de 2020 con un equipo completo y un grupo completo de participantes del retiro, a solo unas semanas del retiro. Regresamos con la mayor parte del equipo original y participantes comprometidos, incluso durante Covid. Dios nos bendijo y nos protegió. No tuvimos una enfermedad de ningún tipo, y tuvimos un retiro bendecido con un grupo de mujeres, llenas del Espíritu, renovadas en su relación con Cristo, que ahora han comenzado y asisten a estudios bíblicos en español los viernes y están haciendo liturgia. ministerios en nuestras misas en español. Alabado sea Dios.
Nuestro próximo retiro ACTS para mujeres será en inglés y tendrá lugar en la primavera de 2023.
Será organizado por Our Lady of the Mountain. ¡Estén atentos para más detalles!
