Capuchin Fever

Capuchin Fever :

1. A condition where you are eager to spend as much time assisting the Franciscan Brothers in their vocation and ministry.
2. A condition that forces you to spend much of your free time with the Franciscan Brothers.

You know you have Capuchin Fever when...

• A brown malaise comes over you.
• Your kids whine & weep when they can't go to morning Mass
• You catch yourself making a meal and think 'how could I stretch this for 15 or 20 men?'
• Brown is the new black.
• Shivering, getting into your car you think about men with a thin wool cloak and thank God for your warmth.
  
• The knees of your jeans start to wear through (AND YOU'RE AN ADULT!) it's from kneeling on wood floors
• Every time you see the snow you think of men walking in open-toed sandals and socks.
• Saturday night youth group is as much of a social time for you as a parent as it is for your kids.
  
• You're struggling and striving and WORKING to develop more of a relationship with Mary before and after the consecration.
