We
have not had a quiz in a very long time so today seemed ripe for it (especially since I am not in a creative mood today.) These are the initials that follow the name of a professed religious. It looks like this: Fr. Benedict Groeschel CFR. On the list you would see CFR. The correct answer would be Capuchins Friars of the Reform. I’ll help you out by indicating which are male and which are female orders. Other than that you are on your own. If I don’t mistake, all of these can still be found in the Diocese of Cleveland (Though there are even more than listed here.) Have fun.
