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.
We should never run from silence. Most of us fill our days with cell phones, noise and soap operas and our nights with cell phones, football, basketball or sit coms. As Franciscans we step into the garden of solitude where the cool, clear water of silence refreshes our spiritual lives.
