San Damiano Cross Reflection

Franciscan Twilight Retreat Series with Fr. Michael Guinan:
The fifth part of our Franciscan Twilight Series invites you to contemplate the beauty and mystery of the San Damiano Cross.

As a Franciscan community, we often recognize this sacred image—whether displayed in a church, a parish center, or hanging in a family home. But how often do we truly see it?

The San Damiano Cross is rich with detail, layered with meaning. While some of its images are clear to the eye, others reveal themselves only through the eyes of the heart.

Join Fr. Michael for a reflective evening as he guides us in exploring this beloved icon through the lens of the Gospel of John—uncovering the deep spiritual insights woven into its sacred design.

Schedule:
5pm Mass (check in 4:30pm)
