Brother Al Mascia, OFM
is a Franciscan Friar of the St. John the Baptist Province. Since his first experience as a teenager, serving the poor and homeless in a New York City soup kitchen, he somehow knew that his life’s calling would involve working with those in need.
As a songwriter, his music tells the stories of some of the men and women who call the street their home and who are some of the most vulnerable among us. Bro. Al is currently in residence at St. Aloysius Friary in the heart of downtown Detroit.
