The Franciscan Spirituality Center is dedicated to anyone seeking wholeness.

We live this mission because we believe:

- In each of us lives the Sacred.
- We need each other to recognize and honor that part of ourselves.
- Responding to spiritual hunger is necessary for growth, healing and peace.
- As we grow in wholeness, we contribute to the healing of all creation.

Community, through prayer, empathy, and sharing, create a safe, peaceful place.
Hospitality, by welcoming all with compassion, acceptance and celebration.
Professionalism, by commiting to competence, quality, trust and personal spiritual development.
