Join us as we celebrate 75 years of faith, welcome, healing, and renewal at the Franciscan Renewal Center. Together, we’ll honor the people and stories that have shaped the Casa, give thanks for God’s abundant blessings, and look with hope toward the mission still unfolding.

Volunteer Appreciation Dinners

Come celebrate the story of the Casa—and your place within it.

For 75 years, the Franciscan Renewal Center has been more than a place—it has been a spiritual home where generations have come to pray, heal, discern, serve, and encounter the peace of Christ.

This anniversary celebration will bring our Casa community together to remember the people and moments that shaped our journey, celebrate the mission we share today, and look with hope toward the future. 

Through prayer, storytelling, fellowship, and special anniversary experiences, we will give thanks for all that God has done through this sacred place and recommit ourselves to carrying its Franciscan spirit of peace, compassion, welcome, and renewal into the next 75 years.
