Sinai Renewal Centre

After having received the Word from the Crucified Lord himself “to rebuild the Church which was in ruins”, St. Francis of Assisi set out to renew the church by a new way of gospel living in Fraternity, Minority, and in Absolute Poverty. He moved along the streets of Assisi crying that “Love” is not being loved and preaching the gospel message to one and all. As he moved like a herald of peace many were attracted to this way of life and followed the path which was shone by St. Francis of Assisi. Thus in 1823 with blessing and bull of the Pope Innocent III the Order of Friars Minor was instituted.
