Public talk: Ladywell: a Global Journey of Faith:- The Life and Mission of the Franciscan Sisters
Saturday 23 November 2024, 1015 to 1200 at The Franciscan Centre Ladywell, Godalming, Surrey

Join us for an inspiring public talk by Sister Jane Bertelsen, Congregational Leader of the Franciscan Missionaries of the Divine Motherhood (FMDM).

Sister Jane will share the rich history of FMDM and introduce us to Ladywell, the serene Motherhouse nestled in the Surrey countryside near Godalming that serves as a centre of Franciscan life and spirituality.

Drawing from her extensive travels across nine countries, she will offer a unique global perspective on the sisters’ mission and community. She will also delve into the profound spirituality of St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi, which continues to shape and guide the sisters’ work worldwide. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the heart of Franciscan life and mission.

More about Ladywell: The Franciscan Centre Ladywell’s beautiful buildings and more than 70 acres of grounds beyond, create an ideal environment to take quiet time away from the haste and hurry of everyday life, invest deeply in your spirituality and experience the inclusive love of God. You are welcome here just as you are, without exception. Ladywell is Roman Catholic.
