THIRD ORDER RULE
GUIDING PRINCIPLES OF OUR FAITH
Rooted in Franciscan spirituality and commitment to Christ-centered living.
THE FRANCISCAN RULE
The Rule of the Third Order Regular provides the spiritual and practical framework for our community life. It calls us to live the Gospel values of poverty, humility, obedience, and love—rooted in the charism of St. Francis of Assisi.
CORE PRINCIPLES
- Poverty: Simplicity and detachment from worldly possessions
- Humility: Recognition of our dependence on God
- Obedience: Alignment with God's will through religious authority
- Service: Loving commitment to others and society
- Contemplation: Prayer and deepening connection with the Divine
LIVING THE RULE TODAY
Our community strives to embody these principles through daily practice, community life, and active ministry. The Rule guides us toward peace, joy, and authentic Christian witness in our modern world.
