Wednesday, December 14, 2016, 6:30-8:15 p.m.  The Franciscan Sisters of the Poor welcome:  Sr. Barbara Fiand, NDdN, writer, lecturer and retired professor of the theology and spirituality will present A Christmas Invitation at Centennial Barn.  In a time of turmoil and division throughout the world and even here at home, it may be helpful for all of us to turn once again to the message of hope that offers itself to us as we remember the stories of Christ’s birth, and to reflect on their meaning for us today.  During our time together we are invited to do precisely that; to move into the depth of our Christian heritage, and to find ourselves there.
