Dear Friends in Christ
Today with great joy we celebrated the canonical establishment of the St. Francis Fraternity at the church of St. Raphael Church in Burlington with the express permission of the Most Reverend Douglas Crosby OMI. bishop of the Hamilton diocese.
Father Peter Knaapen OFM Conv. as Regional Spiritual Assistant was delegated by Fr. Justin Biase, OFM Conv., Minister Provincial to erect this Fraternity on his behalf.
The Fraternity has been faithfully following the rule of the Secular Franciscan Order for many years past, has contributed to the spiritual and temporal benefit of many, has provided one member to the Trillium Regional Fraternity and continues to add new members to the Order. The original minister Mr. Francis Flood ofs was one of the signatories of the document.
May the good Lord bless the " new " fraternity with vibrant life and many new workers in His vineyard.
May the peace of the Lord be with you this and every day.
Fraternally - Les
