Oldenburg Franciscan Center (OFC)

Oldenburg Franciscan Center (OFC) We are here to help you heal, learn, discern, and grow in peace and spiritual wholeness.

The Oldenburg Franciscan Center is located in Southeastern Indiana's historic “Village of Spires”, a town founded by German settlers in the 1830s. Tucked away in a wooded valley flowing with streams and bordered by farms just North of I-74 between Indianapolis and Cincinnati, the Center offers an easy and economic retreat for those drawn to the beauty of nature, the quiet of the country, recollection in faith, and a prayerful place to find peace.

✨ Meet Our Speaker: George Kelley ✨

What happens when education, faith, and storytelling come together with heart and purpose? You get someone like George Kelley.

For over two decades, George has shaped minds and hearts as Education Director at Congregation Beth-El Zedeck. What sets him apart is how he brings learning to life.

He believes education isn’t just about answers, but about asking meaningful questions, building understanding, and creating lasting connections. A bridge-builder, creative thinker, and gifted storyteller, George makes every lesson engaging, meaningful, and alive.

We’re so honored to welcome George and can’t wait for you to experience the wisdom, warmth, and inspiration he brings.

🌿 Claim Your Individuality 🌿
Put Your Negative Shadow to Rest

So often, we carry parts of ourselves we’d rather not face… or we see them reflected in others. What would it look like to gently turn inward, with honesty and compassion, and begin to integrate those hidden pieces into wholeness?

Join us for a meaningful and reflective morning as we explore what it means to own our stories, release shame, and step more fully into who we are.

Join us in welcoming Sue Wilhelm to the OFC this weekend, Sat, May 2 -Sun, May 3. 🤍

Sue has served as a spiritual director for over 20 years, walking alongside people from many different Christian denominations and spiritual traditions. She has a gift for listening deeply—to both the person and the Spirit—and gently helping others discover their own unique expression of love in the world.

Sue is the author of This Soul’s Poetry, a beautiful collection of poems that serve as prayer, reflecting her journey with God through moments of presence, pain, grace, and growth.

We look forward to the wisdom, peace, and presence she will bring to our time together 🤍
