Who are the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal?

The Community of Franciscan Friars of the Renewal was begun in 1987 by eight Capuchin friars desiring to work more definitively for personal and communal reform within the Catholic Church. What started with eight men in the South Bronx has grown to over 140 consecrated brothers and priests in Friaries throughout North America, Central America and the U.K. – including the Most Blessed Sacrament in Newark

The life and apostolate of the friars are rooted in the ideals and spirit of the Capuchin reform born in the early 16th century. The three pillars of their apostolic mission are: service to the materially poor, responding to and living the New Evangelization, and protecting and promoting the dignity of human life.  To learn more about their life and mission check out this video on YouTube:
