| The job of the Office for Justice, Peace
and Ecology is to help the General Minister and his Definitory
in their service of evangelising the international Fraternity,
and to assist the work of the Conferences and Provinces in
the area of justice, peace and respect for creation.

|  The
International Office is composed of two friars: Guido
Situmorang (Prov. of Medan), director of the International
Office in Rome, and David Couturier (P.
New York-New England), one of the directors of Franciscans
International.
The director in Rome endeavors to animate
and to form the friars in a Capuchin-Franciscan approach to
justice, peace and respect for creation while coordinating
the efforts of the international Capuchin family. Br. David,
on the other hand, is the link to the work of Franciscans
International. The international joint Franciscan office is
at the United Nations. This acts as a channel for news, research,
analysis, and action in connection with UN agencies and NGO’s,
of which we (as members of Franciscans International) are
associates. |
