Resources from the 2007 Convocation

Canticle Stations: a meditation on the care of God's creation by Joyce and Amanda Wilding. If you have Internet Exporere, you can view it by clicking here. Otherwise you can download the PowerPoint document.

There is also a .zip file containing all of Joyce Wilding's reources on environmental ministry. Contents include PowerPoint documents (Canticle Stations, Environmental Ministry, Food & Faith, Greening of the House of the Lord, Psalm 104, Water of Baptism) and Word documents (Water Survey, Paper Sources, Greening the Chuch, EpEN Fact Sheet, Food & Faith, Green Building, and more). You can download this 56MB file by clicking here. (Please be patient; it's a large file!) You'll need WinZip to open it.

But wait! There's more: a .zip file containing all of Regis Armstrong, Wayne Hellmann, and Bill Short's PowerPoints from their presentation on the new three-volume Francis of Assisi: the Early Documents. Again, this is a rather large file, but you can download it by clicking here. You'll need WinZip to open it.

St. Anthony’s Bookstore was a great success at the Provincial Convocation and fortunately for those of us who could not attend the convocation we still have an opportunity to purchase some of the items that were ordered exclusively for the store. The T-shirts, mugs mouse pads and pens have the 'Dancing Francis' design and the tote bag has Francis and the whale designed for the convocation by Sister Pamela Clare. You can download an order form here.
