OUR CHARISM

† CORE FRANCISCAN IDENTITY

Conversion, contemplation, poverty, and humility

lie at the heart of Franciscan identity. The fundamental charism of the Third Order Regular is penance, understood as ongoing conversion. This involves turning to God in love, reconciliation with Him, harmony with oneself, and charity toward one's neighbour.
