The Franciscans are involved in hundreds of individual ministries and projects. And you are a vital link in everything we do. Together, we CAN make a difference.

Please pray for us. This is the greatest gift you can give us! Hold us in your thoughts. Ask God to continue to direct our lives as we attempt to be of service to the world.

We need your hands as well. Support our work by joining us in the various ministries we are involved in. Take a moment to visit our communities. There, you can learn about the parishes, retreat centers and missions in your area. In all of these, volunteers are needed. Also, if you're looking for a rewarding one-to-six year challenge, check out The Franciscan Covenant Program, a lay volunteer program for men and women, married and single.

And we need your financial support. Above, you'll find a few general funds we have set up. Click on one to learn more about it. If you want to donate to a particular program or ministry, visit their mini-site or simply let us know to whom you'd like the gift to go. All transactions are secure. But if you're more comfortable sending your donation through the mail, just print the form out and mail it to us.

Also above, you'll find information on wills and trusts. Take a moment to view these documents and let us know if we can be of any help as you plan your estate. Thank you
