Minor Characters

Br. Jimmy Kernan, OFM is a professor at Siena College despite still being in formation and still in his 20s. He has a love for science and a desire to bring his Franciscan charism to the world.

Art doesn't just please the eye, it is meant to tell a story and help the viewer see the world around them differently. No one understands this better than Fr. Jerry Bleem, OFM, a Franciscan priest and artist who uses reclaimed trash and refuse to create thoughtful pieces of art.

When you think of friars, you probably think of priests working in parishes. This is not for everyone. Friars like John Gutierrez have lived out their friar lives caring for patients in hospitals and fighting for justice on behalf of fellow employees.

Tyler Harris, OFM is not worried about the Church. He sees places where faith is alive and thriving, centered around the Eucharist.

Jimmy Beh is in the process of making a major life change: he's just months away from taking vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Some would see this as scary or restrictive, but Jimmy loves the freedom that they provide.
