We are a Catholic Franciscan religious community living and serving among the poor in Chicago’s West Humboldt Park neighborhood with branches for men and women. Our life centers upon our relationship with Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Our life of prayer flows our community life and our apostolates: service to the poor and evangelization through preachingand teaching. We believe that if you can’t see Jesus in the Eucharist, you can’t see Him in the poor.
