Mission Statement: The Portiuncula Center for Prayer, nestled in St. Francis Woods, is a sacred space of welcome for those seeking peace of body, mind, and spirit.
Francis
of Assisi, while dwelling on earth, chose for himself and his followers
a small place for prayer which came to be called
PORTIUNCULA or Small Portion. Following in this tradition, our
PORTIUNCULA Center for Prayer stands in the woods as a sacred space of
welcome, calling the people of God to enter the center for prayer.
Guided by the mission and gospel charism of the Franciscan Sisters of the Sacred Heart, we invite our guests to cradle that space within, allowing for healing and renewal, providing a chance to listen to the Spirit stirring deep inside.
The PORTIUNCULA Center for Prayer aims to foster experiences
that encourage growth in spirituality, theology, and human development.
We hereby share in Francis' vision of assisting in the revitalization
of God's people, and like him, set forth to "rebuild God's Church."
