Kapayapaan
at pawang kabutihan!
In all circumstance of our life,
let us follow the Gospel as the supreme law,
assiduously read the words of salvation,
and, like the Blessed Virgin Mary, carry them in our heart.
Thus, as the Gospel increasingly fashions our life
we may grow in Christ in all things.
Const. 1:6

Be a brother to all.
Be a Capuchin.

Capuchin Franciscans are brothers devoted to follow St. Francis in a genuine spirit of prayer and apostolic work. We live in Gospel brotherhood, in joy, simplicity, humility and availability, faithful to Holy Mother Church and in the service of the local Church as far as we can.
