The Rite of Christian InitiationThis weekend, we joyfully celebrate the Rite of Welcome for those who are seeking full initiation into the Roman Catholic faith.The individuals being received into the Order of Catechumens will be preparing for their Baptism, Confirmation, and First Eucharist.We also received people who, already one with us by Baptism, now wish to complete their Christian initiation through Confirmation and Eucharist and to be received into the full communion of the Catholic Church.This rite is as much for the existing faith community as it is for those who are entering: we are all called to be signs of the kingdom; we are all called to welcome and encourage catechumens and candidates; we are all called to pray for them and lead them to deeper faith by our example. In the rite this weekend, we share with them two significant gifts of our faith: the cross and the Bible. In the weeks ahead, as you come to know who these important people are, please welcome them and pray for them. … See MoreSee Less

Our House Is Your HouseThe holidays are fast approaching, and soon your house may be filled with out-of-town guests. This is your opportunity to introduce them to the FranciscanRenewal Center. Show them firsthand why you call the Casa your home. There are some great events coming up that family and friends of all ages will enjoy.Mark your calendar for December 7 and 8. Buon Natale Greccio makes its return. This musical, created by Norbert Zwickl, tells the story of St. Francis and his portrayal of the humility, poverty, and simplicity of Jesus’ birth, touching the lives of the villagers of Greccio, Italy. Buon Natale Greccio is a great event for the entire family.Your guests will also not want to miss a Discover the Art Tour in the church. A docent will be on hand to walk you through the church and talk about the world-class art glass, sculptures, and design. Public tours are every Wednesday at 11:30 am, and Saturday at 3:30 pm. All are welcome, and reservations are not needed.Discover the Vision Tours are available twice every month, on the first and third Thursday. During this one-hour tour, you will hear amazing stories of spiritual growth, healing and transformation, and service to others. You will leave with a better understanding of the Casa’s ministries, programs, and mission.If you need a little “me” time, come walk the grounds. The Casa’s 25 acres has walking paths, ramadas, meditation areas, and a labyrinth. This is the perfect way to recharge during this hectic time of year.We look forward to welcoming your guests at the Franciscan Renewal Center this holiday season. Our house is your house.— Sue Force – Donor Relations – 480.355.5631 … See MoreSee Less
