(One Day) Retreat Opportunity



"A Franciscan Christian Life of Continual Conversion.”

Looking for a chance to get away, even for a day? Have you ever visited the Franciscans in Little Falls?

We will discover and reflect on themes such as: 1) How do we experience continual conversion; and 2) Being a Franciscan Christian Today: Signs and Wonders.
What could be more fitting topics at this time of the year?

S. Elise Saggau will be our guest speaker. Sr. Elise earned a Masters degree in religious education from Seattle University, a Masters of Divinity degree from Loyola University, and a Master of Arts degree in Franciscan Studies from St. Bonaventure in New York. She has been a theology teacher at Loyola and Mundelein and an administrator at the School of Theology at St. John’s University. She worked at the Franciscan Institute at St. Bonaventure University in New York as assistant director of publications. I am thrilled she will be sharing her wisdom and experience with us again.

This year’s Lenten Day of Reflection takes place on Saturday, March 6th at The Franciscan Sisters of Little Falls Convent from 9:30 am – 3:30 pm.

** Cost is $30/person. You may register by calling Judy at 320-632-0693 or e-mail her at jvirnig@fslf.org no later than February 24th.**
