Do You Picture St. Francis as Smiling or Frowning?

The feastday of St. Francis of Assisi is in October (the 4^th). Come join us in looking at a few episodes from his life. We will explore a wee bit into how each of us sees his stance toward the Kingdom of God and his relationship with the Divine. We will have group discussion, prayer time, and silent periods to be outside; lunch is included. Learning more about St. Francis can deepen our own connecting with our gentle God.

————————————————

Saturdays with St. Francis occur once a month, from 10:00am until 2:00pm, lunch included. Brother Mark has designed each Saturday program as a 4-hour reflection time for you. Each monthly Saturday session is like a mini-retreat, long enough to unwind and breathe. Each Saturday stands on its own–with topical themes (this is not a series).

Franciscan values and spirituality are important for anyone attempting to deal with the ups and downs of modern life. There is nothing finer in our fast-paced lives than to take time for your Self…. The pace of our sessions is easy-going and reflective. You can come early and/or stay later to enjoy the prayerfulness of our grounds.

Please mark your calendar for the following date for Saturdays with St. Francis for 2026: October 10; November 7; December 12. Cost is $40 per person including lunch. From 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.
