Support Our Work

You can help us!

St. Francis insisted that all the friars work and support themselves by their own work, but should that prove inadequate they should then "seek alms with confidence ... because, for our sakes, our Lord made Himself poor in this world."

In general the Capuchin Friars of Australia are able to cover the majority of our day-to-day needs through our earnings from ministry. But there are some areas in which we need the kind help of generous benefactors.

    THE EDUCATION OF OUR STUDENT FRIARS

    OUR MINISTRY TO THE POOR AND MARGINALISED

    ST ANTHONY'S BREAD FOR THE POOR

    MAJOR BUILDING RENOVATIONS

We Capuchins could not exist today without the help and support of many friends and benefactors, so we confidently put ourselves in their hands. And we are most aware of our duty to give our benefactors the witness of poverty, fraternity and Franciscan joy, and to pray for them constantly. Special intentions of friends and benefactors are remembered at daily Mass and prayer by the Capuchin Friars.
