Treat yourself to an “AH”day. You will find quiet spots in a beautiful setting. Once you enter the gates it is so peaceful. You can visit the museum and learn the history of our Franciscan Sisters.

I find Chiara Center a place of beauty and peace. The staff truly mirror the Hospital Sisters of St. Francis charism of hospitality.

A couple of years ago I was so blessed to spend a short time at the Chiara Center. It is a beautiful and peaceful place where your soul can find quiet. It is my hope to visit there again some day.

Words cannot describe how amazed I was by the Chiara Center… The three days I spent there left me feeling refreshed, re-energized, and I now have a newfound sense of well-being! I would recommend the Larry Mathews Outreach Mission everyone!

I attended the Larry Matthews Mission Fellowship Program this week and it was life changing, uplifting and God centered and it is an experience that I’ll never forget. Definitely more than 5 stars

So much to learn about the sisters who built and live here. I was in wonder while I was there. A great place for spiritual growth with our maker and your inner peace.
