Franciscan Sisters Lenten Discernment Events

 Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity invite young adult Catholic Women to consider our Lenten Discernment Events.

February 23: Come Rebuild My Church with Saints Francis and Clare


The Eucharist is the source and summit of our Catholic faith. During this period of Eucharistic Revival, might God be calling you to build up the Church as St. Francis and St. Clare were called? Franciscan Sister of Christian Charity Sister Anne Marie Lom leads on this discernment retreat. Sister Pam Biehl assists with the closing prayer. We welcome your questions, your discernment, and your insights.

Join us in person or via Zoom at 6:30 PM Central Time on February 23. Register here. If you join us in person, consider coming for the weekend.


March 15-17 Discernment of Spirits Retreat

Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity offer you this special mostly silent retreat on March 15-17, 2024 at our Motherhouse, 2409 S. Alverno Road, Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Led by Sister Jacqueline Spaniola, the Discernment of Spirits Retreat offers insight to discern how the Holy Spirit speaks to you and informs and inspires intentional life decisions.

Sister Jacqueline is currently the Pastoral Associate Minister at St Albert the Great University Parish at Michigan Technological University in Houghton MI. As Sr Jackie explained  “The Retreats are based on Discernment of Spirits – St. Ignatius’ twenty-two rules for discerning a calling and understanding God’s will in one’s life. Young women said ‘if it’s a quiet retreat I will go’ and I think young people in their twenties and early thirties are seeing that they need that quiet that the society is not giving them. They just want some quiet time to really reflect on what God is asking them to do.”
