YAFraM extends the invitation to young adults, no matter where they are in their journey of faith, regardless of their particular faith tradition. It offers a chance to consider how faith, particularly Christian faith following in the path of St. Francis of Assisi, can help make sense of an often-confusing world. It begins with the development of interpersonal relationships, one-on-one , contactin
g young adults and inviting them for conversation and sharing in an environment of hospitality and welcoming. Once these initial contacts grow into a desire for spiritual assistance, the person is invited to participate in one-day program or a retreat experience based on Gospel living in Indian-Franciscan spirituality. This is a ministry of St. Maximillian Kolbe Province in Kerala, India with the support of the Province of Our Lady of Consolation, based in southers Indiana. Three Indian Friars, Fr. John Pozhathuparambil, Fr. Tony Vattapparambil are working for this ministry.
