The Bishop of Assisi once said to St. Francis, "I think your life is too hard, too rough. You don't possess anything in this world."
And Francis replied, "My Lord, if we had possessions, we would need weapons to defend them."
St. Francis of Assisi
Anonymous of Perugia - 17
The Portiuncula Franciscan Chapel, located adjacent to the Immaculate Conception Cemetery in Ozark, Ohio (Diocese of Steubenville) is humbly committed to imitating the Gospel life of Christ, and observing the Sacraments. Placing ourselves under strict and holy obedience to Father Nick Ward, we follow the Medieval Penitential First Rule of the Third Order of St. Francis, dated 1221 A.D.
