Franciscan Day of Reflection

Featured Presenter: Father John Petrikovic, OFM

August 12, 2023 @ 9:00 am 3:00 pm CDT

$25.00 includes lunch

Join us at Our Lady of the Angels Chapel – 26W171 Roosevelt Rd – Entrance #7, Wheaton, Illinois. All are welcome as we learn about the extraordinarily ordinary human lives of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Clare of Assisi from Capuchin Franciscan Friar Father John Petrikovic.

This in-person Franciscan retreat offers the opportunity to explore other valuable aspects of the lives of Francis and Clare, and we will spend time considering what we actually value – and what we don’t.

Registration Open from Monday, June 19th – Monday, July 30th

About the Presenter:

John Petrikovic, OFM Cap., is a Capuchin Franciscan friar priest in the Ministry of Preaching, offering workshops on Franciscan topics, mission formation for Franciscan Health Systems, retreats to Religious Men and Women in the English-speaking world and parish missions throughout the United States.

More about the Franciscan Day Retreat:

It was written that Francis of Assisi could be heard in prayer asking “Who are you, Lord, and who am I?” Clare of Assisi would use the word “ineffable” (inexpressible, indefinable) when contemplating the Lord’s love and poverty.
