Pilgrimage Information

Hello again!



I realize that this rather like putting the cart before the horse, as the adage says.



I went on a pilgrimage in spring 2017, a historical pilgrimage walking in the footsteps of our foundress, Blessed Mary Angela, and Saints Francis, Clare, and Felix. We started in Warsaw, Poland, where Blessed Mary Angela started the community. Then we went to Cracow, where she lived for many years. We saw her bedroom, the kneeler that she would pray at, and the Archive and Museum of Blessed Mary Angela.


It was part of the preparation for my perpetual vows. I also participated in classes, in Polonia, Wisconsin and Chicago. Polonia is the place where our sisters first came from Poland, real Felician holy ground.


The pilgrimage was a time of prayer and community. We stayed with our sisters in Poland and Rome, and they often accompanied us on our tours and prayer services.
