The Secular Franciscan Order (OFS) is a branch of the worldwide Franciscan Family. We are single and married. We work, worship, and play in the community where we live.
The OFS is a secular movement, established by St. Francis of Assisi over 800 years ago. Our purpose is to bring the gospel to life where we live and where we work. We look for practical ways to embrace the gospel in our lives and try to help others to do likewise.
In today's world, we are plagued by time schedules, projects, and activities that leave us tense and stressed. The OFS becomes our place of refuge and renewal where our brothers and sisters of Francis support and inspire us. You, too, can become a lifetime member of our family - if God is calling you.
