Sister Catherine, Franciscan Sister of the Renewal

Guest Speaker … Sister Catherine, C.F.R. …Before answering the call to religious life, Sister Catherine was a U.S. Olympic speed skater. After studying at the Art Institute of Chicago, her entire life changed for a life dedicated to Christ. Sister Catherine will share her inspiring journey of trust, faith, and finding her ultimate purpose in the heart of the Church.

In imitation of St. Francis of Assisi, the Sisters seek to follow in the footsteps of Jesus, as a prophetic witness that life is a pilgrimage to the Father, of faith, hope, and love of God and neighbor, made possible by the Holy Spirit.

In honor of the Jubilee Year of St. Francis, men an women are invited to this Meal with the Sisters of the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal to hear their Testimony of Faith.
