This guided walk is a journey inward, a journey of the heart. We invite you to come away for two hours and visit seven shrines and sacred spots on the 89-acre campus. Beginning with the San Damiano Cross located in Our Lady Queen of Peace Chapel, you will visit shrines and images that proclaim the life and journey of Francis of Assisi. Spend time reflecting on Francis’s Canticle of the Creatures, the icon of Francis and the Sultan, the Portiuncula Chapel (St. Mary of the Angels), as well as St. Francis and the Wolf of Gubbio. At each stop, we will consider our Franciscan history and take time for prayer and reflection. Groups or individuals may request special tours.
2022 dates: Tuesday, June 28, Tuesday, July 12, Wednesday, July 20 and Thursday, August 4. The tour begins at 10:00 a.m and lasts until noon. $20 fee includes lunch. Please call to reserve your space five days in advance, 419-824-3528, or email
