Encountering God Through Art

May 16 @ 6:00 pm May 18 @ 11:00 am EDT

By Sister Judith Marie Blizzard and Sister Jane Mary Gawlik

By being open and attentive to finding God in all things, art can draw us more deeply into our hearts and minds and encounters with God. Take time to explore prayer through Scripture and creative reflection.

Connect with God through art as prayer– while exploring various mediums, including clay, ink and watercolors. Find your inner artist and connection with God as Sisters Jane and Judith guide sessions in Maryville’s scenic setting. No artistic ability is required.

No artistic ability is required, and all supplies are provided.

Serving where needed since 1874

Founded in Poland in 1855, the Felician Sisters are a congregation of women religious inspired by the spiritual ideals of their foundress, Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska, and Saints Francis of Assisi, Clare of Assisi and Felix of Cantalice. Arriving in North America in 1874 following Blessed Mary Angela’s directive “to serve where needed,” they helped to weave the social service system. Today, the Felician Sisters founded, sponsor or support through the presence of our sisters, more than 40 ministries – all continuing to evolve to meet the needs of the people they serve.
