✨ The 2025 Acts Chaplains' Conference (Sept. 22–25) was a remarkable gathering that brought together all Acts Chaplains at the Corporate Services Center. 🙌

🎤 Outstanding speakers — all from within Acts, including several chaplains — delivered impactful presentations that stirred hearts and minds. 🙏

This conference not only celebrated the chaplaincy ministry but also reignited a shared vision for spiritual leadership across the organization. The days were filled with powerful moments of reflection, worship, and fellowship — a time of deep connection, inspiration, and renewal. 🤝❤️

We’re grateful for the opportunity to support and celebrate the lives of those in our communities, and we honor the traditions that bring us together during this special time. L’shanah Tovah & G'mar Chatima Tovah! 🍯🍎🕊️🌿
