About us | Franciscans for the Poor offers both winter and spring alternative break opportunities as well as summer Mission Trip experiences. We focus on exposing our participants to the Franciscan traditions of simplicity, service, community, and prayer. Groups of five to thirty-five people, from parishes, schools, and colleges nationwide, come and spend a week or weekend living simply in community with one another while serving in various service agencies in the greater Cincinnati area. We provide the housing, food, and service assignments, as well as social, educational, and prayer opportunities throughout the experience. Come make a difference with us! |
