Thank you for your tremendous generosity! There are many ways to contribute to and participate in the Franciscan vision. First and foremost, you can include us in your prayers. Also, you can serve as a volunteer in any one of our ministries. And, if you are a single, Catholic man and feel a call towards religious life, you can participate in the discernment process offered by our Office of Vocations. If you would like to contribute to our efforts in a material way as well, you can do so directly through this website, or contact our Office of Outreach and Development.
