"It's rare that a person can say that a spiritual community can altered the course of a life into the path of Agape love. This statement is true for me. The FRC has fed me spiritually and emotionally for more than 20 years. I am grateful for the quality of life I've grown into and feel so blessed for the many times Christ's hands and feet moved through the staff in this Community to help raise the level of compassion and love in our larger Community. Thank you FRC for the journey and the direction."

"The Renewal Center is my first choice when it comes to holding events. The staff is very accommodating, the food is excellent, and the space is literally “holy and sacred.” We have been received as part of the family."

“We love having our Affiliated New Thought Network conferences at The Casa each year. It’s a beautiful sacred space for our attendees to experience love, friendship and spiritual growth. As the conference coordinator, I find working with the staff to be a wonderful and easy process throughout the planning stages as well as while we’re onsite. I truly appreciate how supportive they are to ensure the success of our annual conference. We will all be back next year!”

"Having looked for several years for adequate facilities for various sized groups, small to large, when I found the Franciscan Renewal Center, I felt as though I had come home....good food, more than adequate housing, wonderful location in a beautiful setting...and did I mention the food? The administration has always been hospitable to deal with. I have been a frequent user of this very fine facility and can recommend the Franciscan Renewal Center unreservedly to any group."
