July 22 - 24 Adelynrood Retreat & Conference Center - Coming to Terms With the Gentleness of St. Francis of Assisi

We will take this weekend, not to dismantle the birdbath Francis, but to uncover the real man and saint behind the popular legends. Who was he? What did he really do that was so unusual and important? Most of all, we will focus and then practice how Francis cared for creatures (human, animal, and even inanimate) with particular carefulness and gentleness; and discover how essential this spiritual practice was and is to the Gospel.
