(12)

The Province of the Americas is part of the Episcopal Church. Francis was born in Italy into a wealthy merchant family in the town of Assisi. Through war, imprisonment, and ill health he discovered humility. Through dreams, revelations and insights, he discovered God's calling for him. We brothers of the Americas, some 800 years after his birth, have been inspired to come and follow Jesus through

the inspiration of Brother Francis. Something about the simple joyful man touched us. For some it was his devotion, or his simplicity, his response to the environment, his life story, his loving relationship to his brothers, his call to peace. We individually follow God's call to us through the lens of Franciscan spirituality. This takes the form of traditional vows: poverty, chastity, and obedience. Each vow is accented with the notes of humility, joy and love.
