The Legacy of the Franciscans

Robert Ellsberg October 5, 2017

There have been several Franciscan popes in history, most recently Pope Clement XIV (1769–1774).

Franciscan Media strives to inspire a loving world that embraces the spirit of harmony, joy, and simplicity. May our resources renew your spirit as we share God’s love in the spirit of St. Francis and St. Clare.
