St. Francis: Journey of a Resilient Warrior

Event Date and Time: 4:00 pm Friday Feb 20 1:00 pm Sunday Feb 22
Location of Event: Franciscan Renewal Center, 5802 E. Lincoln Blvd., Scottsdale, AZ 85253

This retreat will offer healing insights to our active duty service members and military veterans who may be experiencing difficulties from their military service. 

The retreat offers healing insights into one of the most beloved, but misunderstood saints, St. Francis of Assisi, who was a soldier and a prisoner of war in the 12th century. In untangling the paradox of his life, the retreat will explore the call of the warrior with the call of spirituality. 

The retreat is led by Fr. Conrad Targonski, OFM, who is a Catholic Franciscan friar and who served 22+ years with the Navy & Marine Corps as a supervisory chaplain in Operation Phantom Fury. Over 220 AZ veterans have attended this retreat at the Franciscan Renewal Center. He has also taken over 400 veterans on the Pilgrimage for Veterans to Assisi, Italy since 2012, including 20 Arizona veterans. 

The cost of the retreat if Free.
