Welcome from the Provincal Minister
Welcome to the website of the Franciscan Friars of the Assumption Province.
We are part of the worldwide Franciscan family. This family includes many thousands of men and women who take the vows of religious life and many more Christian faithful who belong to the Secular Franciscan Order.
The Franciscans of Assumption Province belong the Order of Friars Minor whose rule of life comes from St. Francis of Assisi. Our vocation is to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the Catholic Church. The approximately 150 Franciscan Friars who make up the Assumption Province today offer the witness of brothers living fraternity as we proclaim the love of God to the world.
The Franciscan Friars of the Assumption Province serve the People of God in Catholic parishes, schools, hospitals, shelters for the homeless, in the military—wherever people need to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ and to experience God in their lives.
