Serving New Jersey & Southeast USA
We are called “to ensure that the fraternities of the Secular Franciscan Order at the different levels receive continual and zealous spiritual and pastoral assistance,” (Const. VI, I, 102, 4).
In heeding this call, we, the Capuchin Friars of the Province of the Sacred Stigmata, serve the Order of the Franciscan Seculars, O.F.S., in New York/New Jersey, Southern New Jersey/Eastern Pennsylvania/Deleware, and Southern Georgia/Florida. We minister at the local, regional, national, and international levels.

“Let us also work with them in the formation of their members, so that they may spread the Kingdom of God not only by the example of their lives but also by various kinds of apostolic activity.” - Const. IX, 155, 2
