In today’s world of isolation, we feel a call in our hearts to create connections of love and hope. Join us as we deepen our relationship with the Creator and all of creation in a day of discovery, play, reflection and inspiration. This three-hour program will include online prayer and discussion, and offline reflecting, including an invitation to interact with nature in your own environment. This is a collaborative event with the FSPA Ecological Advocacy Team, Marywood Franciscan Spirituality Center in Arbor Vitae, Wisconsin; Prairiewoods Franciscan Spirituality Center in Hiawatha, Iowa; and the Franciscan Spirituality Center in La Crosse, Wisconsin.
