ABOUT "INCARNATIONS"

Incarnations is a newly formed consortium of friars for the arts who are seeking various ways to use the creative talents of the friars of our Province in service of the Gospel.�The consortium is comprised of Franciscan Friars from the Province of the Immaculate Conception.�

Our friars serve in various ministries as parish priests, retreat ministers, chaplains, educators, and peace and justice animators.�We are stationed in Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., Virginia, Florida, Texas, Ohio, Minnesota, and West Virginia.�The first items created under the auspices of Incarnations are cards:�a Christmas card and a set of note cards.�Future artistic creations will include: pottery, poetry, candles, and books.�

Profits from the sale of items help to fund future artistic projects, support the friars, and channel money to the T.O.R. Outreach Fund which ministers to the needs of the poor here in the States as well as the Infant Child Jesus Center in Paraguay.�Our retired friars assist in the packaging of the items.�All packing materials are recycled.
