The Franciscan Missionaries of Hope has richness of vocations. This is both a blessing and a challenge. We believe in giving those who meet the recruitment standards a chance to discern their vocation with us. As we embrace the blessing and embark on facing the challenge, we are forever grateful to God who has abundantly provided for us through the prayers and the generosity of our benefactors and the people of goodwill.
Currently, we recruit candidates from the three East African Countires of Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania.  

Steps to Joining the Franciscan Missionaries of Hope

• Correspondence with the vocation director through mail using the provided address.
• After correspondence has been established, you will be invited for a three months “live-in/come-and-see” experience as an aspirant: to come and experience our community life.
• If admitted, you will have one year of postulancy, one year of novitiate, three year of Philosophical Studies, one year of Franciscan Studies, and four years of Theological Studies. Theology is not required of those who are not seeking ordination to priesthood: those who want to commit themselves to be lay brothers.
