Prayer to Blessed Father Frederic
for Vocations to the OFS
 
Lord You have called on Bl. Fr. Frederic Janssoone to help us, through Mary, to follow the path of your son. Obtain for us through Fr. Frederic's example a deeper faith, hope and charity, aiding us in bringing more of the faithful into the fraternity of the Secular Franciscan Order. Grant us, by his intercession and according to Your will, the graces we implore, hoping that Blessed Fr. Frederic will soon be numbered among Your Saints. Amen.
  
Glory be to the father.. (three times).  And being in anguish, He prayed more earnestly. Luke 22:42-44

FRATELLI TUTTI
STUDY GUIDE
​The third encyclical from Pope Francis, Fratelli Tutti, was published on October 3, 2020. The title and opening words of the Holy Father's encyclical letter come from St. Francis of Assisi, borrowing the language that Francis of Assisi used in addressing his brothers and sisters.
​
Franciscan Media published a study guide for each chapter of Fratelli Tutti, including a chapter written by Br. Bill Hugo, OFM Cap., a member of the Capuchin Franciscan Province of St. Joseph. The guide is well-suited for individual study, parish study groups, formation programs, and secular Franciscan fraternities.
