The Franciscan forums are provided to encourage communication between site members, particularly among members of the OEF. However, please bear in mind that the opinions expressed in the forums are those of the individual writers, not necessarily the OEF as a whole. What is written here reflects the wonderful diversity of our OEF members and friends!

Our simple guidelines:

• Please keep the conversation polite.
• As much as possible, post in the correct area. This allows people to read the areas that interest them and not miss your messages.
• Prayer requests should be directed to the Prayer Center. That will ensure that our Prayer Chain participants receive notice about your requests.
• Be mindful of the diversity of forum participants and be respectful of others' opinions.
• In discussions/debates, focus on issues, not the other members.

Have fun!
