The Guild strives to promote the spiritual well-being of all its members, living and deceased, through prayers, Masses and Special Intentions. It helps educate priests and brothers in the Franciscan tradition so that they may go out into the world as St. Francis and St. Anthony did and spread the message of love for God and all His creatures. The Guild and its members serve God by supporting the Franciscan Friars in their work with the poor, the alienated, the homeless and the suffering.
