'Lesser' Brothers

St. Francis said: "The Lord has called us to awaken the faith and to assist the prelates and clerics of our holy Mother the Church. Likewise, we are bound, to the extent possible, to love them always, to honor and venerate them. The brothers, as a matter of fact, are called 'lesser' because they must remain very humble with regard to all the men of this world, humble in all their behavior and by their example, as well as by their name"...
