Resource Library

Welcome to our resource library, a place where we offer options for spiritual nourishment and reflection! A good part of this library is maintained by the Council on Spirit and Life.

The mission of the electronic media branch of the Council of Spirit and Life is to provide a catalogue of links, books, articles, videos, and other media that represents the mission and way of life of Mt. Irenaeus. This collection is meant to serve as a guidepost for those who would like to learn more about the Franciscan tradition, for those interested in learning more about the history of Mt. Irenaeus, and for those who are looking for resources to assist with their unique spiritual journey. In addition, the electronic media branch will maintain a record of the books available on site at Mt. Irenaeus.

Podcasts
