Mission San Luis Rey ParishFaith Community

Our Catholic Community of San Luis Rey is served by the

Franciscan Friars of the Province of Saint Barbara

To pray is to discover God at the centerof our lives. We don’t pray to acquire a

relationship with God…we pray to disclose the image of God within us.

From St. Clare and Ilia Delio, “Franciscan Prayer”.

The Ascension of the Lord

“Men of Galilee,why are you standing

there looking at the sky?”

St. Francis so deeply reflected on scripture and the love of God that his

whole life, his being was transformed by prayer, solitude and reflection.
