FSLF is a community of Catholic women who follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ, walking in the footsteps of Saints Francis and Clare of Assisi.

(Click on thumbnail image above to view larger image; click on right arrow to view more images) Today we number 160 vowed members. We live and serve throughout the United States as well as in Mexico and Ecuador. Our mission is extended in a manifold way by an association of friends (Franciscan Associates) of the congregation who aspire to participate in the spirit and energy of the sisterhood while remaining in their own committed lifestyles. Following in the footprints of Jesus Christ and moved by the same Spirit that moved Francis and Clare, members and associates of our community witness the unconditional love that God has for all creatures; to celebrate this love in worship, service, and to make available to all they meet the presence of the Risen Christ who lives among us.

Ministries of the Franciscan Sisters include: spiritual direction, retreat facilitation, justice and peace ministry, care of creation, education, foster care, teaching ESL, working with the homeless, hospitality, prayer, building community and relationships, parish ministry, volunteering, chaplain, music and art, gift planning and development, home care, nurse companion, Hispanic ministry, youth ministry, missionary counseling, massage therapy, gardening, health and wellness.

    It was always a wonderful experience visiting my aunts at your convent. It was peaceful and welcoming. My aunts are in heaven now, and I miss them and the visits to your convent. God bless you.
