Hello #Fediverse

I want to share with you all some simple infographics to promote the Community of Franciscan Tertiaries (Third Order Secular of #StFrancisOfAssisi) that I am currently in formation with as a Novice.

Our community was established on December 8, 2019 as an organic union of fraternities of the Franciscan Third Order under the spiritual direction of the #OFM Province of the Immaculate Conception in the #USA. It is a Public Association of the #Christian faithful and a "Third Order" according to Canon 303 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law.

I am the first novice among the Isolated Tertiaries of our Tertiary Community who is a #Filipino Citizen, and I hope to make known the existence of our community to all laity and diocesan clergy who wish to live as Franciscan tertiaries did before the Rule changed in 1978 in a 21st-century context.

It would be nice to have more fellow Isolated Tertiaries.

Feel free to visit our website: http://www.thirdorderfranciscans.com if you're interested.

I've been writing blog posts about some of the interesting prayers from the Thalbach prayerbook, a 16thc manuscript probably copied by a Tertiary sister in the Bregenz convent -- nearly 300 pages in a single hand. These prayers, I'd argue, give an important glimpse into 16th c Franciscan spirituality. Today's contribution: a prayer on Mary's sorrows as redemptive
