Email Newsletter
Each week we send out a newsletter via email chock full of information about the work we do in conjunction with the greater Franciscan Family. It starts off with a reflection for the upcoming week’s Gospel and offers news and information on issues we focus on. To ensure you get our newsletter delivered each week right to your email, please subscribe below.
What people are saying
“Personally, I find the newsletters a most valuable resource for actions that can be engaged in by FAN/Justice Circle participants and then forwarded to others. They also provide the encouragement of realizing that there are many people who are sharing their concerns and that there are actions available to be taken.”
