Assisi Pilgrims: Franciscan Soul-Themes for Inner Holy Grounding

Monthly sessions on Sunday afternoons from 3 to 4:30pm
$30 per session
Join S. Gabe in a year-long “pilgrimage” to explore the great Franciscan soul-themes. Gathering on monthly on a Sunday afternoon, we’ll unfold our mystic maps and open our spiritual traveling bags to experience the heritage homeland of the Christine Center. Our spiritual sanctuary sensibilities are deeply rooted in the spirit of Assisi.
We’ll travel the length and breadth of the city, and then dare outside its wall for hermitage and hospitality. We’ll use Assisi’s magnificent art and the stories of the early Franciscans to explore the spiritual landscape that continues to inspire the Christine Center community to soul-deepening and transformation.
If you have never been, or if you have already been there, Assisi is a treasure trove of natural loveliness and spiritual challenge. Designed as four seasonal excursions, join us for a set of three Sunday afternoon outings or for the whole year! Each session will include marvelous photos, inspiring conversation, and the opportunity to meditate together using a sacred image from the sites we’ll visit. We’ll enjoy each other’s good company and experience together holy ground. The only passport needed is a zoom link!

Hosted by
Sr. Gabriele Uhlein
