In the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi, we continue to host anyone who seeks spiritual growth through a deeper relationship with God in a place of peace, community, healing, and joy.

The celebration of Homecoming 2023 on August 20 was a wonderful time to give thanks to God and to the founding Franciscan Sisters of Allegany and the many men and women, clergy, lay and consecrated religious who have shared the time, talent, and treasure with the Franciscan Center over the 52+ years of its history.
