Our mobile fraternity will function similarly to a stationary fraternity. One friar will serve as the guardian, another brother will be the chronicler (records daily life) and a photographer. Some roles will rotate to prevent stagnation. Leader, cantor and lector for the Divine Office will rotate weekly. All in all, everyone shares the load. No one's assignment is everybody's responsibility. -- Posted by Roger

Joshua Van Cleef“This pilgrimage is about the abundance of life offered in simplicity, in relationships, and in trusting in God.” 
Richard Goodin"Pilgrimage as a lifestyle is resurfacing within the Order; it is a penitential and radical way of completely relying upon the grace of God." 
Clifford Hennings"I desire to hold nothing within my breast other than the love which I have been blessed by the Lord to receive, so that I have nothing to give but Christ’s perfect charity." 
Roger Lopez“When all the basic necessities of life are stripped away, one begins to see oneself, others and God in a different perspective, either positive or negative.” 
Ed Shea, OFM"As a friar for over 25 years, I have always dreamed about doing something like this. I thank God for these young friars and their passion – it’s contagious!" 
Mark Soehner, OFM“It seemed important [for me] as a formation director to accompany the deep desire of our younger friars to live out our charism in this way. For me personally, it will be a way to walk with Christ.”
