Worship
All are welcome to worship with the Wheaton Franciscans in our beautiful chapel in Our Lady of the Angels Motherhouse.
The first Sunday of each month from September through May is Joyful Sunday with Mass at 10:00 a.m.; the rest of the month Sunday Mass is usually at 9:00 a.m. If you enjoy making music as part of your worship experience, we are always looking for additional musicians and choir members for Joyful Sundays!
For more information on worshiping with us or if you would like to be on the email list to receive our monthly liturgy calendar, please contact Katie Chambers.
An Invitation to Discover
Who Are the Wheaton Franciscans? This presentation will introduce you to the Wheaton Franciscans - our mission, philosophy, ministries, and various ways you might want to connect with us. Join us for one of these informal presentations and conversations. March 19, 2013 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and May 4, 2013 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Please contact Jeanne Connolly for more information.
Circle of Contemplation
Each month a circle of Wheaton Franciscans gathers to sit in silence as we meditate together. Through this simple act of faith, our intention is to bless the world that we may all be instruments of peace, transformation, hope, and healing. Join us in the Deutschland Chapel of Our Lady of the Angels Motherhouse from 10:15 to 11:00 a.m. on the third Sunday of the month. To join the monthly email reminder list or if you have any questions, contact Sr. Diane Przyborowski at 630-346-8033 or by email.
Threshold Choir
Threshold Choirs honor the ancient tradition of women singing acappella at bedsides of people who are at a threshold in their lives. The Wheaton Threshold Choir meets for rehearsal at Marianjoy, St. Francis Chapel in the evenings of the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month from 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. They presently sing at bedside of the DuPage Convalescent Center, Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital and Wynscape Convalescent Center. For information contact Sr. Shirley Krull at 630-909-6950 or by email.
Prayer Wrap Ministry
Since 2005, the Wheaton Franciscans have been knitting or crocheting prayer shawls with the intention that they might serve as a healing presence for those who are experiencing loss or serious illness.
We have now expanded our ministry to also include prayer blankets. The fringes of the fleece blankets are tied together and are given to some of the patients at Loyola Medical Center.
We meet from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at Our Lady of the Angels Motherhouse on the third Wednesday of the month.
Please contact Sr. Diane Przyborowski at 630-346-8033 or by email if you are interested in participating.
