Associate Project (Dakar)
A program offering support and spiritual activities to those enrolled in the Franciscan Sisters of the Poor Associate program. Associates are men and women, married and single, living in various countries, which choose to share in the life and mission of the Franciscan Sisters of the Poor. They endeavor to live the Gospel, following the example of St. Francis of Assisi and Blessed Frances Schervier, who made Jesus Christ the inspiration and center of their lives. Motivated by the dynamic power of Christ through the Gospel, they share in a Franciscan way of life by being open to interior change which the Gospel calls conversion -- an on-going process.
Associates aspire to live the Franciscan values of simplicity, poverty, humility, and contemplation.
