Whereas some religious traditions within Christianity offer a singular approach or spiritual focus, the Franciscan tradition is wonderfully diverse and manifold offering modern spiritual seekers an array of paths toward reflection on life, the world, and God.

This retreat day explores some of these diverse Franciscan approaches to prayer and spirituality, including Francis of Assisi, Clare of Assisi, Bonaventure and Angela of Foligno, among others. No previous experience with the Franciscan spiritual tradition is needed and all are welcome.

The Way of the Franciscans is also a Lent devotional for 2022 that offers an introduction to the rich, diverse, and inspiring Franciscan spirituality. Available here https://spckpublishing.co.uk/the-way-of-the-franciscans

The day will be held in person at The  Meditatio Centre and also online. 

The recording of the day will be made available to all those who register.
