St. Peter's Church Programs & Events
SAN DAMIANO SECULAR FRANCISCANS
Meets Thursdays, 12-1 pm, Lower Level of Church
All are welcome!
The Secular Franciscan Order is one of three branches of the Franciscan family. Its members consist of Catholic women and men, single or married, from all walks of life, who seek to observe the Gospel by following in the footsteps of Sts. Francis and Clare of Assisi. The San Damiano Fraternity was founded at St. Peter's in 1994 by Father Benet Fonck, OFM. All who feel they may be called to the Franciscan way of life or who simply would like more information, are welcome to attend the meetings. We wish everyone Pax et Bonum (Peace and Everything Good).
GROUP SPIRITUAL DIRECTION
Facilitated by: Sr. Fran Sulzer, FSPA, D.Min.
Tuesdays, 1:30-2:30 pm, lower level meeting room
Dates: TBA
Group Spiritual Direction is based on the belief that the Holy Spirit works in our lives and that we are strengthened when we share from our experience. Similar to Individual Spiritual Direction between an individual and a director, GSD is designed for a group to reflect and share their understandings related to a given topic. GSD draws from Scripture. Persons agree to share personally and confidentially for the purpose of heightening their awareness of God’s presence in our daily lives. GSD is not a time for solving problems or socializing; it is an opportunity for growing. Call 312-372-5111 for further information.
INDIVIDUAL SPIRITUAL DIRECTION
Sr. Fran Sulzer FSPA, D. Min. and Br. Guillermo Morales, OFM will work with persons who contact them for an appointment. Sr. Fran is also a counselor for people who choose or need a more clinical approach. Appointments can be made for times between 10:30 am and 3:00 pm. For information regarding Spiritual Direction, please call
312-372-5111.
