Spiritual Resources
Prayer is primarily an expression of love. Real prayer erupts anywhere and at any time. We do not become prayer conscious but God-conscious. So, everything on earth becomes the “stuff” of prayer.
As we spend time in quiet solitude, our senses are awakened. This brings us to a deeper understanding of ourselves and the entire universe.
We offer a variety of opportunities – programs and events for spiritual growth. Whether it is a desire for solitary time at our Franciscan Life Center, with nature at Clare’s Well, or quiet renewal time at Sabbath House, retreats and time alone allow us to relax and be more consciously ready to respond to God’s presence and call to a deeper life.
