We, the Secular Franciscans of Saint Clare Fraternity (Omaha, Nebraska), are lay Catholic Christians of the Franciscan tradition following a life-long commitment to live the Gospel after the example of Saints Francis and Clare of Assisi.  Nourished by the Eucharist, we celebrate fraternity in prayer, work, and leisure, serving God and neighbor through a variety of ministries in a spirit of simplicity, peace, and joy.
