Friday Community Highlight – Wheaton Franciscans

By Jodith | Aug 1, 2008

This week’s highlighted community, chosen at random from all the community links on the site, is:

The Wheaton Franciscans

From their website:

Who We Are: The Wheaton Franciscans comprise the United States Province of the International Congregation of the Franciscan Sisters, Daughters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Mary. We are a community of vowed women religious and covenant (associate) women and men whose mission is to live the Gospel following the spirit of Francis and Clare of Assisi, and our foundress M. Clara Pfaender. This spirit challenges us to live a life of ministering in mutuality and partnership, with love as the energy which moves us. We collaborate with other religious communities and lay partners in health, shelter and other human service ministries. Our individual ministries are as diverse as the gifts that we each bring to community life.

I also received an electronic copy of their brochure on their Covenant Membership, which some of you may be interested in.

I encourage all of my readers to take the time to give their website a look.
