There is no secret. Only some things have to be experienced to understand rather than explained. I’m sure you can relate to that in your own life. I went on the ACTS retreat this year and I am so much better for going on it. It allowed me a chance to reflect on who I am and who I would like to be as a person. I’m a better father, son, brother, uncle, husband and Christian because of what I chose to receive from the ACTS retreat. The choice is always ours. We receive the gifts we want to receive from every situation. God Bless and keep searching for for the truth, the way and the light.

The mystery is what happens during an ACTS retreat. What actually happens? The so-called River Rule. What is the secrecy? Why can’t some generalizations about what happens be told? I think we all fear the unknown. Why not actually explain what goes on at an ACTS retreat? Any comments?

I went to ACTS. It turned out to be what I thought. It's people with no professional training in counseling putting on a group do-it-yourself counseling session...and calling it a spiritual awakening. The problem is, because some people are emotionally vulnerable to this it's irresponsible (I'm cutting short of immoral) to unwittingly manipulate others into these secretive retreats. Be truthful about the retreat format. I know someone who suffered from clinical depression. One week after attending his ACTS retreat he committed suicide. His wife blamed his experience with the retreat for pushing him over. Nothing in my retreat dealt with Catholic teachings related to A.C.T.S subjects.
