The Lady Poverty Region is divided into four fraternity clusters by geographic location: central, eastern, southwest, and northwest. The clusters are named for qualities St. Francis exemplified: Eastern: Cluster of Perfect Joy; Southwest: Cluster of Compassion; Central: Cluster of Love; Northwest: Cluster of Goodness.

The Clusters were formed to assist the Regional Fraternity in promoting and advancing the Franciscan charism among the members of the fraternities in each Cluster. It easier to initiate or promote activity or activities for advancing Franciscan charism with a smaller group than the entire Regional Fraternity. Cluster gatherings are not limited to transitus celebrations, retreats or Days of Reflection, but may also be workshops, or simple social occasions.  The Cluster group is meant to be its own level of fraternity between the local fraternity and the regional fraternity.  Please contact us to promote any Cluster activities on our website.
