Last night, October 12, 2017, we held our second annual Franciscan Dinner and Pope Francis Award. It was indeed a time to celebrate the extraordinary work of the Shrine, create greater community awareness, continue to build a culture of philanthropy, and help us continue the mission. Last night was about telling our story and that is exactly what we did. Thank you to each of you for making this year’s Franciscan Dinner and Pope Francis Award an overwhelming success.
