The Philadelphia Franciscan Volunteer Ministers (FVMs) live and serve as part of a full-time Franciscan community that runs Saint Francis Inn, a place of ministry with people who are homeless, addicted, mentally ill, and very poor.  The main ministry is the soup kitchen feeding up to 400 people a day — not only in body, but also in spirit.   FVMs also have the opportunity to work in a women's day center, an urban center, and thrift shop.
