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.

The Bishop of Steubenville has given us permission to duplicate the Portiuncula Chapel located on the Franciscan University of Steubenville on our land in Monroe County, Ohio. We will be asking each participating Jeep Wrangler to donate $10.00 to our building fund but it is strictly voluntary (Free Will Offering). We will also be gathering for dinner in Woodsfield, Ohio.
We will be departing from the campus of the Franciscan University of Steubenville at 08:00 A.M., run down to Clarington, Ohio on Route 7 (along the Ohio River) and then take the back roads to Ozark, with the final leg of the Rally taking us along Ozark-Eddy Bridge Road.
Hog Roast and Raffle at our destination.
(Stay tuned for particulars)
Sponsors for the event are greatly appreciated.
