New Date: Join Us in Celebrating Our Transformation Journey

by Franciscan Federation


“Life is a journey, and the key to a happy journey lies in celebrating each step along the way.”
Richard Carlson, Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff… and It’s All Small Stuff (1997)

Please note our new date, mark your calendars and plan to attend the Franciscan Federation Membership Forum via Zoom on Saturday, January 25, 2025 at 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time / noon to 4:00 p.m. Central Time / 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Mountain Time / 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

The purpose of the special gathering is to celebrate and inspire. The theme is “Our Mutual Call to Leadership of the Ever-evolving Gospel Way of Life.” Sr. Mary Beth Ingham, CSJ, will offer the keynote address.

This special event is the capstone of our Year of Listening and Learning and will celebrate the Franciscan Federation Transformation process to date. Our time together will be one of sharing what the Federation has learned and accomplished and of insight and inspiration for shared leadership as Federation members strive to lead an ever-evolving way of life inspired by the Third Order Regular, St. Francis, St. Clare, and the early lay penitents of Assisi. It will be a time to meet the new board members and to express our deepest gratitude to members of the board departing after years of faithful service.

Although the event will be open to all interested people, a discount will be provided to current Federation members. Remember: If your Canonical Community is a member of the Franciscan Federation every vowed member who belongs to that unit enjoys membership benefit. Likewise, if your Associate Community has joined the Federation, every Associate (Companion, Cojourner, Affiliate, etc.) who belongs to that community enjoy membership benefits.
