Our Mission:

The Sylvania Franciscan Village is the purposeful expression of the Sylvania Franciscans and their sponsored ministries, formed to harness energies for the greater good and benefit of those who share the Franciscan mission.

The Sylvania Franciscan Village is more than a place. It is a new way of being together.

Deeply rooted in the values of St. Francis of Assisi, the Franciscan Village strives to:

Create uncommon connections and multigenerational experiences;
Model an environment of peace, compassion, justice, reverence for all life;
Bring our resources to address needs wherever we serve and beyond;
Continue to grow and bear fruit.
