In the tradition of St. Francis of Assisi we offer a prayerful communal life with active service to the Church. As priests and brothers our ministries are: Christian Unity and Interfaith Dialogue, Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation, and Retreat and Parish Ministries. The Franciscan Friars of the Atonement have long been leaders in the worldwide ecumenical movement to heal divisions within Christianity. In 1908 we began an annual prayer movement (January 18-25) that developed into the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. Today, the Friars’ mission of “at-one-ment” includes dialogue among Christians, Jews, Muslims and Buddhists; serving homeless and those suffering from alcoholism, drug additions, and HIV/AIDS; preaching the gospel in parishes around the world, and offering respite and hope to those in need of spiritual renewal.
