Capuchin Connections

Meet the Friars

On a regular basis the Capuchin friars host a series of "Meet and Greets," or Open Houses to meet the friars at St. Augustine Friary in the Lawrenceville section of Pittsburgh and other areas of the province. The schedule for the Meet and Greet begins with a Mass with the friars and  breakfast or lunch. It is an opportunity to ask the questions or find the information about the friars that you've always wanted to know, or to simply enjoy an hour or so with the friars. We look forward to seeing you at St. Augustine Friary. Click here to see details of upcoming Meet and Greet sessions and sign up to attend one in the near future.

Alumni

If you are an alumnus of Saint Fidelis High School, Saint Fidelis College, the Capuchin Formation Program at Borromeo Seminary or Toner Institute, we would love to hear from you. We would like to keep you up to date on what is happening with your friends, as well as your former classmates and teachers. The years go by, but the relationship can last forever. We would love to begin by sending you a copy of the newsletter of the Capuchins, The Poverello. There is also a Saint Fidelis Day Alumni Mass on April 24th, with breakfast following.
