A Heartfelt Thank You for Your Generosity: Christmas Appeal Success

As we step into the vibrant season of Easter, we are filled with deep gratitude for the overwhelming generosity you showed during our Christmas Appeal. The gifts you shared with us during the Christmas season continue to bear fruit as we embrace this new season of growth and renewal.

Thanks to your extraordinary generosity, we are able to further our ministries in significant ways—especially in supporting the formation and education of the next generation of Conventual Franciscan friars, and in providing care for our retired and infirmed brothers.

In this time of renewal, your support stands as a living testament to the enduring spirit of service and compassion within our community. Through your faithful contributions, we are able to nurture seeds of hope and faith in the friars of tomorrow while honoring and caring for those who have served so faithfully in the past.
