Hey All,

Our Community has just revamped our website and I wanted to share it.

[url="http://www.franciscans.org/"]The Conventual Franciscans[/url]

There are also some really really cool [url="http://www.franciscans.org/recruitment.cfm"]video clips.[/url]

Please look at the site and leave some feedback and guys open your hearts to maybe God might be calling you to be a Franciscan friar....


in Christ and Mary,
fr. Matt, OFM Conv.

Pax et Bonum!

That is one cool site. Most of the younglings around here would call it spin or some more current version of cool.

I really like the flash thumbnails, especially the 'Why you are here' one. Very nice. Does one of the friars do the web design?

My daughter is a Poor Clare. St. Francis is da man.

I am glad you liked it! Feel free to share it with others...

I was talking with our vocation director, he said our old website got 30-50 hits a day and people stayed for 5-6 minutes....we are now getting close to 1000 a day and people are staying 14-15 minutes...Needless to say I was impressed

maybe we will be having novitiates of 25-30 friars again!

from my fingers to God's ears....
