About the event
This retreat, “Who is Saint Francis and What Does He Teach Us Today?” is based upon a recent book of Franciscan priest, Murray Bodo, OFM, titled Surrounded by Love (Seven Teachings from Saint Francis).

When we live these teachings the result is joy and union with God, who lives with us and within all of creation.
Sister Kathleen has been a Sister of St. Francis for over sixty years. Her ministry over most of that period was in education (from a junior high teacher to a superintendent of schools). Later, she became director of a retreat house, a facilitator of retreats and a certified spiritual director.
Currently, Sister Kathleen ministers as a spiritual director…
