Franciscans Need a Car Appeal!


I just spotted this on At Home In My Father's House...Anyone got a spare car?

The Franciscan Friars of the Renewal in Bradford have need of a car. Their current one, a Fiesta, sounds as if its had its last oil change...

The Friars say, "We took it round the clock and around most of the country. But soon it will have to retire. For this reason if anyone has a car they'd like to give us, for the love of God, we would gratefully receive it as long as it's over three years old and doesn't have 'a look of luxury'! Also, if there was room for three broad shouldered men in the back, that would be helpful..."

If you can help at all, here are the contact details:

The Community of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal
St. Pio Friary
1, Sedgefield Terrace
Bradford
England
BD1 2RU

Tel: 01274 721989

Make sure you add a disclaimer to your car donation saying that they will only receive your car if they start celebrating Mass in the Extraordinary Form with immediate effect and to "get with the programme". Warn them, in charity, that the Franciscans of the Immaculate are getting all their potential new vocations because the Franciscans of the Immaculate are "hardcore" and because they celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass, and are therefore more beloved in the heart of the dear Father of the Order, St. Francis. Tell them its time to put the keyboards and guitars down and embrace the TLM with joy. That'll learn 'em!
