"Silence is God's first language, everything else is a poor translation. In order to hear that language, we must learn to be still and to rest in God."
Thomas Keating
Invitation to Love
T
The Portiuncula, located in Jerusalem, Ohio, in the Diocese of Steubenville, is home to the Franciscan Lay Apostolate. We are humbly committed to imitating the Gospel life of Christ, and observing the Sacraments. Placing ourselves under strict and holy obedience to Bishop Jeffrey Monforton of Steubenville, the Magisterium, and Father Timothy Davison, we follow the Medieval Penitential First Rule of the Third Order of St. Francis, dated 1221 A.D.
"CUM GRANDE HUMILITATE!"
"Preach the Gospel at all times, and when necessary, use words."
