This page is a constant work in progress. Our fraternity has multiple logos and is developing other logos to eventually digitize for embroidery, creation of banners, and could be used for creating everything from coffee mugs, shirts, to other accessories for the benefit of the fraternal members. We do have a generic digitized embroidery for the OFS. However, we will not distribute that digitized embroidery design except through approved channels to prevent its misuse.
However, there are several PDF brochures, posters, and trifolds that are being developed to target different demographics to promote awareness of the Secular Franciscan Order.
The immediately following attachments are obsolete as they are text only brochures from the now disbanded Oceana National Fraternity. Please be advised, these attachments are meant to assist in brainstorming ideas to create relevant new brochures. Demographic information, British spelling and grammar usage, and culture in the attached brochures may not match the USA National OFS information and target audiences.
Other attachments will be forthcoming as several new icons are in development for our fraternity and will be using the images to make our brochures more aesthetically pleasing.
- Brochure #1: Introducing St. Francis
- Brochure #2: Who Are Secular Franciscans?
- Brochure #3: Secular Franciscans: Who Are We?
- Brochure #4: Rebuild My Church
- Brochure #5: Questions About Secular Franciscans
- Brochure #6: Secular Franciscans: Our Past, our Present, and our Future
- Brochure #7: Is Christ Calling You?
- Brochure #8: The Secular Franciscan Order for Young Adults
- Brochure #9: The Secular Franciscan Order for Working Adults
- Brochure #10: The Secular Franciscan Order for Retirees
The following two brochures have a contract with permission from the artist Christi M. Jentz to distribute. There are versions in A4 (standard size for Great Britain and Australia) and 8.5 inch by 11 inch (American letter size) trifolds. Thanks to the OFS in Australia who made these brochures.
The following 3 posters were created in the Philippines. I do not know who created these posters as I would give them credit, but they posted this on Facebook in the Secular Franciscan Group (not officially tied to any Local, Regional, or National fraternity) to benefit the Franciscan family.
There will be more brochures in the future as we receive new Byzantine icon images and develop content appropriate to different demographics. Please feel free to contact us to help us in developing new brochures.
