Perspectives Magazine
Perspectives tells the stories of how, grounded in Franciscan spirit and values, we are nurturing relationships, building global awareness, acting for justice and peace, caring for the environment and creating unity in diversity through the commitment to Gospel living. While our Winter and Summer Perspectives are online only, all are welcome to subscribe to the print version of Fall and Spring Perspectives. To subscribe, email the editor at communications@fspa.org.
