Journeying
with
Saints Francis and Clare
of Assisi together with
St. Bonaventure
We two Franciscans have embarked on this spiritual journey with companion sisters and brothers across the globe.
André Cirino, OFM: I am a friar minor of the Province of the Immaculate Conception, New York. My academic background includes: BA, Immaculate Conception College 1963; MA West Virginia University, Counseling, 1968; STM, Woodstock School of Theology, 1975. My ministerial experience includes parish work, Franciscan formation, education, publication and spiritual assistant for the Secular Franciscans of the Little Portion Fraternity. I have also worked at the Little Portion Retreat House for the poor in Bronx, New York. Since 1984 I have conducted pilgrimages to Italy, Prague, England, Mallorca, France, Germany and the California Missions. I lectured at the Franciscan International Study Centre, Canterbury, England.
Josef Raischl, SFO: I was born in Bavaria, Germany. As a married Secular Franciscan I live with my wife Bernadette and our three children in Dachau, near Munich. I am Director of St. Christopher’s Hospice Home Care Services in Munich ( www.chv.org ). My graduate studies encompass both philosophy and theology from the Catholic University of Eichstätt and the Franciscan International Study Centre, Canterbury, England, as well as an MA in Social Work in Munich. I did my post-graduate studies in Franciscan Spirituality in Rome at the Capuchin Franciscan Institute at the Pontifical University Antonianum.
