Totus tuus.
jgirl Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 They are an AMAZING order. I know a few guys from Steubenville in the order. I ran into them at the March for Life and they looked so cool in the habit and beards, and plus they got bonus points for coming to DC to stand up for life!
lanie Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 I love the Franciscan's I know a few of the London based Brothers and they are truely amazing!! I'll be seeing them this weekend, Yay!! :cheer:
Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted October 27, 2004 Posted October 27, 2004 They do seem like a wonderful order based on the Priests I have seen. I think it would be a great order!
AfroNova No Limit Soldier Posted October 27, 2004 Posted October 27, 2004 It is a wonderful order. Hey.. speaking of Franciscans... I'm going to Assisi, Italy again in June 2005. Anyone want to come? Dude, St. Francis is totally there. It's so awesome. That's where I fell in love with him! Fiat Voluntas Tua, I had a friend who checked out the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, but it wasn't for him. So keep an open mind about other orders. God bless you in your discernment!

Guest mary412 Posted October 27, 2004 Posted October 27, 2004 [color=blue][font="Times"][COLOR=blue][FONT=Times]Andy! Praise be Jesus Christ for your consideration of the CFRs. i am also discerning entering the CFR Sisters! Please pray for me, i graduate from college in May and am torn between entering next fall and staying at the Parish i work at as a Youth Minister and staying to help take care of my grandmother who had a massive stroke 2 months ago. Before my grandma i was ready to go, but now i'm not sure, because God uses things to form the path we are to follow. Please Pray and i will be praying for you my brother in Christ, and my possible future Brother brother! God Bless Mary [/color][/font]
ForHimAlone Posted October 27, 2004 Posted October 27, 2004 All glory to God!! Andy, that is awesome! The Franciscan Friars of the Renewal are an amazing order doing so much good for Mother Church. Ah, praised be Jesus! You're in my prayers! You, too, Mary !
Theologian in Training Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 They came over to the seminary a couple of weeks ago. Great bunch of guys, very holy and very down to earth. You will be in my prayers God Bless
goldenchild17 Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 I think I could be being called to the FFR's as well. Not too sure yet though.
Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted November 3, 2004 Author Posted November 3, 2004 they are the CFR's (Community of the (Franican) Friars of the Renewal. it would make since if they were they FFR's but i guess GFR is tight. Totus Tuus! Andy
voiciblanche Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 Wow! That's awesome if you're called to their order! I've met several of the friars and a few sisters, and they are sooo wonderful.
Fool4Christ Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Wow! It's obvious that God is puouring out the graces, and vocations, on both the FFR brothers and sisters! Praise God!
AfroNova No Limit Soldier Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Andy, (and I know I don't have to tell you this, I just want to say it for my own security) don't rule anything out. I have an awesome holy friend who spent 2 weeks this past summer with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal in NYC & he didn't have an awesome time BUT he still agrees that they are awesome. He had the same opinion as you & the others who have posted here about how awesome they are, but upon visiting them & living with them, he knew God wasn't calling him there. They may be awesome like y'all think, but what if God isn't calling you there? Don't forget that there are all the other orders who don't get all the hype - Carmelites are one. But they're friggin' awesome. Mother Angelica's community gets hype, too, but not enough. Poor Clares. Diocesan priest or brother. JMJ
ThyWillBeDone Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 (edited) Oh awesome order. I considered them shortly before I discerned that my call was to the diocesan priesthood. You will be in my prayers. God Bless, Chris Edited November 20, 2004 by ThyWillBeDone
Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 Pax...AfroNova...I appriciate that. And I thank everyone for praying for me. My gguardian Angel has told me that I may be called to the diocesen priesthood...but also maybe even to the married life...I love confussion, especially when it is understanding God's will, because all-in-all it isn't confussing, just hard to see. Totus Tuus, Andrew
