Br. Roger Lopez, OFM, and Br. Colin King, OFM, shared their front-row seat to the action leading up to and beyond Pope Francis' canonization Mass of Franciscan friar Br. Junipero Serra on September 23 in Washington, D.C.

They captured the spirit, excitement, and hope with their videos of Pope Francis and interviews with lay people and Franciscan friars from around the world (including our own Fr. Larry Dunham, OFM).

"You can be given the weightiest responsibilities, some might say
perhaps the most prestigious position in the Church, and remain the same person...
I see the same Bergoglio that I knew in 2003."
- Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle from the Philippines.

"He comes as a man of faith, a man of peace."
- Minister General Fr. Michael Perry, OFM
