Seminar discusses Christ-centered relationships
The annual Household Fair was held Sept. 3, from in the Finnegan Fieldhouse, where many of the 46 households on campus set up booths and spoke with students about their charisms, covenants and commitments.
Franciscan University introduced households to its campus in December 1974 when the Rev. Michael Scanlan, T.O.R., was making numerous efforts to get university students more involved with their faith.
"Today, households are still what Father Michael Scanlan desired them to be-imitations of small Christian communities that existed in the first century," said the Rev. Gregory Plow, T.O.R, coordinator of households.
