Learn About Our Way of Life
The Franciscan Friars of Holy Name Province are men who choose to live a simple lifestyle in community. Ours is a life of prayer and service to the church and the world, modeled on the life of St. Francis of Assisi. We take vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. We serve as priests or brothers in a diversity of ministries: preachers, teachers, parish ministry, caring for the sick and aged, working for peace and justice, and ecology.
You will find us along the eastern seaboard, from New England to Florida and as far west as Buffalo, N.Y. We also serve in Africa, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Japan and Taiwan.
