CommunityNews 2The Franciscan Renewal Center is owned and staffed by the Order of Friars Minor,Province of Saint Barbara since 1951. It was incorporated in 1992 and is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit entity. The Franciscan Renewal Center (The Casa) is not a parish but ratheroperates within cannon law as Our Lady of the Angels Conventual Church. This churchis canonically a part of the friar convent and the church religious Ordinary is theprovincial minister Father John Hardin OFM.

The FRC applies a three pronged approach to governance and management. TheProvincial Trustees of the corporation are responsible for seeing that the ministriesremain Franciscan and that the property is maintained for the church and the Order. The

Board of Directors reports to the Provincial Trustees and is responsible for seeing that the mission/vision, goals andpolicies of the ministries follow the Franciscan tradition and also serve the needs of the Church. The board oversees theefficiency of the ministries and that the ministries conform to state and local laws and regulations. The board follows agovernance model compared to that of daily management. The General Manager together with the Executive Directormanages the day to day operations and implements the strategic plan. They direct the staff of 35 and collaborate withhundreds of volunteers. The ED/GM report to the board of directors.The Franciscan Renewal Center Vision: We are a center for the experience of spiritual growth which transforms andmoves us beyond ourselves in the service of others.As a Christ-centered community, we embrace the Catholic tradition in the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi, and wewelcome all to share in: Prayerful Celebration and Contemplation, Learning, Social Action, Healing, and Hospitality.

Simply, we exist to inspire or change society toward peace and goodness, renewing lives.

The purpose of the FRC is to provide community resources for people involved in fostering growth in human andspiritual awareness. It is our aim to provide hospitality within a beautiful, peaceful setting, for a variety of groups andpurposes. The Casa serves a world community with facilities that still retain much of the quaint flavor of the originallodge. Indeed, many of the buildings are original, a point not lost on many who come to the Casa. Franciscan Values;The board and staff of 35 have adopted the following:

Magnify the voice of the under-heard;Our values trump market growth, income or profit potential;We accept interruptions as potential opportunities for cooperation with the Spirit;Intuition is a superior form of knowing over rationality;We look to the coincidence of opposite for answers;Our priority is cooperation with the Spirit;Proactive collaboration and cooperation honors our interdependence yet accountability remains clear;Potential for spiritual growth and transformation equals success.
