Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity (see above) are offering a series of Discernment Events and Retreats in 2020. Please remember we’re always glad to come to you as well, if you’re in driving distance from one of our mission sites in the SW, Central, Midwest US, Ohio or Mississippi.

We enjoy driving – we’re a mendicant order after all – time to pray and reflect on the wonderful dioceses and people where we serve.

Thought I'd share our events as well... (Franciscan Sisters of Dillingen - USA)

Each summer we hold 
"Mother-Daughter Days,"
An event in which mothers can bring their daughters to have some time together.  
It is an opportunity for them to strengthen their relationship together,
learn about their Catholic Faith, and gain exposure to the Religious Life.
For more information, contact Sr. Jean Louise.

We also welcome young women to 
"Come & See" 
what our life as Franciscans is like.

We have a Come and See coming up May 15-18, 2020.  Great opportunity for those wanting to learn more about prayer and know more about Religious Life. No matter what a person is called to, we are called to Receive God's amazing Love and to share that love with others.

"Receive Love - Be Love" Come and See Retreat

From the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne, NY - this is the congregation that takes of incurable cancer patients. This link lists four Come & See weekends in 2020 - the first one is this very weekend, so that ship has sailed. But there's plenty of lead time for the other three this year.
