Holy Family Ministry Center has been Franciscan in its ministry from the beginning.  The union of Divine Mercy and Franciscan Spirituality makes an intimate connection to the cross of Jesus and its "victory over sin and death".  The work of St. Francis, St. Clare, St Camillus, St. Padre Pio, Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, and the teachings of Pope John Paul II have greatly influenced our lives and our mission to those vulnerable people who cannot speak for themselves and to help others in need regardless of economic status, race, creed or capacity as we are able, with the help of God.
