Just like St. Francis was asked to rebuild the Church back in the 13th century, we recognize that today, we are all called to rebuild our Church. Many parishes face a critical shortage of resources, while their local neighborhood also faces material, psychological, and/or spiritual needs. Active lay missionary communities near or at the local Church can help address these needs. In collaboration with the Church, they can reach out to the neighborhood, respond to needs, receive gifts, and work with their neighbors to beautify individuals and communities. Broadly, we aim to communicate truth through beauty, through local churches and the Church.​​
