St. Maximilian Kolbe Region of the Secular Franciscan Order Peace and All Good Be To You !!! This is the official home of the St. Maximilian Kolbe Region of the Secular Franciscan Order. The Secular Franciscan Order (abbreviated OFS for the Latin name Ordo Franciscanus Saecularis) is a Catholic religious order for laity and clerics, men and women, who follow Christ in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi. We gather in fraternity to pray, study and live our lives as servants of God's will according to our rule of life. This spiritual life is carried into our secular world, where we live with our families and join in the work world, never losing vision of God's will. Here you will learn about our Regional Fraternity, the Local Fraternities we support in the northern Ohio area, our Order, St. Francis of Assisi, and St. Maximilian Kolbe. Come join us on the journey to live in the world as guided by the direction of God's love by visiting this site often. |
