Real Conversations – Staying present and engaged in difficult interactions
The Franciscan Sisters of Little Falls invite you to join them for a series of conversations held Tuesdays, September 9-October 28, 2025, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at St. Francis Convent, Little Falls, or by Zoom.
Have you ever fallen silent in a difficult conversation, not knowing what to say? Are there times you don’t feel heard or understood? Do you resist relationships with people you don’t agree with? This series develops your ability to deeply listen within, speak your truth without blame or judgment, and engage more fully with the ideas and thoughts of others. All with compassion for yourself and others. It’s an eight-week deep dive of noticing and reflecting on your thought patterns, understanding your intention for relationship, and grounding in your values. You’ll come away with increased confidence to speak truthfully and lovingly, letting go of “fixing.” You’ll be equipped to seek connection instead of division.
Facilitating this series are spiritual directors Jamie Deering & Sister Michelle L’Allier. There is a course investment of $79; scholarships are available.
For more information and to register by September 5, call 320.632.0680 or email FLCEvents@fslf.org.
