"When we think of possessions, we usually have material things in mind, but St. Francis used to remind us that possessions are material and spiritual, ANYTHING we appropriate to ourselves."
Saint Francis of Assisi
Admonition 2

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 the Bishop of Steubenville, the Magisterium, and Father Nick Ward, we follow the Medieval Penitential First Rule of the Third Order of St. Francis, dated 1221 A.D.
