The Franciscan Order, founded by Saint Francis of Assisi in 1209, seeks to enrich the entire life of the Christian whose daily life is the living of the Gospel message as an example to others. The Order members, called Tertiaries, build on the four cornerstones of Franciscan spirituality: humility, simplicity, poverty, and prayer.
Third Order Tertiaries come together in community once a month to share and renew their Franciscan spirituality. The General Meeting is held at 2:00 pm in Annex A on the fourth Sunday of each month.
