About the year
In June 2023, the Franciscan Federation announced 2024 A Year of Listening & Learning to offer members the opportunity to voice their aspirations and desires for the Federation. As the Transformation Process comes to completion, the National Board and Staff view the input of our members as vital to the ongoing growth and development of the Federation.
Keynote Speaker
As part of each Listening & Learning session there is a pre-recorded keynote presentation by Br. Michael Perry speaking to the Federation directly about times of transition and transformation from a Franciscan perspective. Michael served as the General Minister of the OFMs during the beginning of the process of merging the provinces in the United States. He speaks to us from a deep place of knowing and experience when it comes to transformation!
Sponsorship Opportunities
As the Federation seeks to engage our members in this final year of the Transformation process, we are incredibly grateful to our benefactors who financially support these efforts! Please consider becoming a sponsor for our Year of Listening & Learning.
