ABOUT ST. FRANCIS SERAPH MINISTRIES

A plea from Archbishop Purcell to the Franciscans of St. Leopold Province in Austria lead to the formation of The Franciscan Friars in 1854 located in Over-the-Rhine. During the 1980’s, the Friars launched two of the signature programs - Sarah Center and The Dining Room. In 2012, St. Francis Seraph Ministries (SFSM) was established as a separate nonprofit organization and is governed by a board of directors. Today, SFSM is seen as a catalyst for resource development and communication for the urban poor. They are the creator of the St. Anthony Center, a nonprofit hub located at the corner of Liberty and Republic Streets. Visit https://www.sfsministries.org for more information.
