The Testament of Francis
“From the bitterness of lepers to the sweetness of heart.”

Spiritual Exercises preached by Friar Piergavino Piras

The Sanctuary of La Verna, a place marked by the presence of Saint Francis and his profound experience of faith, offers Spiritual Retreats for Sisters and Consecrated Women: a precious time to reflect on one’s vocational journey in the light of the stigmata of Saint Francis.

Days of silence, prayer, and fraternity, accompanied by the friars of the Sanctuary, to rediscover the joy of consecration and renew one’s response to the Lord.
The experience takes place in the peaceful and beautiful setting of Mount La Verna, the heart of Franciscan spirituality.
