Franciscan Spirituality

Humans do not have the patience or the humility of God.

Everything is sacred. The entire creation, including every person, is a sacrament of God.

Among all the voices that surround and beckon us, we need to discern the unique cadence of God’s voice.

To describe God as “humble” may seem outrageous or even scandalous. Who could stake one’s life on a humble God?

St. Bonaventure experienced God’s love as revealed in the humility and suffering of Christ, whose cross enables us to experience God’s companionship and the power to change our lives.

All of us are invited to be rich soil for God’s word, and all of us have become rich soil in baptism.
