Registration is now closed.

Spend a prayerful weekend reflecting on the life and spirituality of St. Francis of Assisi and his profound conversion to Jesus Christ.

Themes to be addressed:

• St. Francis' Life and Profound Conversion to Jesus, to Jesus’ Way, and Growing Understanding of “Francis, Rebuild My Church!”
• His Growing Reverence for All Creation and Rapid Growth of Followers in the Lord; his special friendship with St. Clare
• His Commitment to Dialogue, Non-Violence, Peace-Making
• His Seeing Deeply into the Heart of God and Passionate Love for Jesus Crucified, and being Taken Up into Deep Union through Experiencing in his own Body the Wounds of Jesus
• The Franciscan Way: Gospel Simplicity, a Life of Trust and Surrendering All to God’s Providential Ways in our daily living

Our weekend will be conducted in prayerful silence after these talks, while sharing among one or two others in your room if that is better for you; We will have mass before Saturday Dinner and Adoration after Dinner. Optional sharing among all who wish in the 45 minutes before Sunday Mass and Lunch.
