The Filipino Capuchins is a brand that represents a community of Capuchin Franciscan friars who strive to live the Gospel with simplicity and fervor, following the footsteps of their founder, St. Francis of Assisi. With a rich history dating back to 1223, when the Franciscan Order was born, the Capuchin Franciscans emerged in the 16th century emphasizing contemplative prayer and a rigorous lifestyle of poverty.

Today, the order has grown to include 11,000 brothers in 101 countries, living in over 1,800 fraternities. The Capuchin lifestyle is characterized by simplicity, a close relationship with people, and a fraternal spirit. Their communities, known as fraternities, are joyful and hospitable places.

As an evangelical brotherhood, the Capuchins are guided by the Gospel, the writings of St. Francis, and the life of Christ. They fulfill their mission by preaching through their example and engaging in various practical activities, such as prayer, education, retreats, spiritual direction, social service, and more.
