The Friars in Western Canada
Welcome to the
history of the Franciscan Friars of Western Canada. The Friars
have been working in Western Canada since 1908 and have Friaries
located in British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan.
It
is our hope that you will be able to find out basic information
about the Friars and their ministries. The strength of today's
Franciscans is their diversity. While many religious communities
specialize in one area such as teaching school or foreign missions
the Friars minister in parishes, teach theology, assist refugees and
immigrants, work in print shops, minister to the less fortunate in
inner cities while others are doctors and lawyers. Each community is
different. Each Friar brings his own gifts to the community.
If
you have a specific question about Franciscan life that you would
like answered please contact us. We would be happy to respond to
your questions.
