Franciscan Federation

Third Order RegularThe Sisters and Brothers of the Third Order Regular of Saint Francis

The Franciscan charism is a gift given to the Church through Francis and Clare of Assisi and theirfollowers. The Franciscan life includes elements from both monastic and apostolic religious life,

but has its uniqueness. The emphasis is on neither a common place centered on contemplation and thepraise of God, nor on a common task centered on the concrete mission of service to the Church and world.It is rather on a common heart: a prophetic witness to Christ and the whole of his gospel.Francis and Clare's life for the church is a call acknowledging the primacy of Christ with all its implications fora radical way of thinking. Their ability to read the signs of the times challenged them to embracecourageously a new worldview, giving birth to an evangelical movement for the enlivening of the Church.

More articles to appear in future bulletins.

The Story Behind the Peace Prayer of St. Francis

The Peace Prayer of St. Francis is a famous prayer which first appeared aroundthe year 1915 A.D., and which embodies the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi'ssimplicity and poverty.

According to Father Kajetan Esser, OFM, the author of the critical edition of St.Francis's Writings, the Peace prayer of St. Francis is most certainly not one of thewritings of St. Francis. This prayer, according to Father Schulz, Das sogennanteFranziskusgebet. Forshungen zur evangelishen Gebetslitteratur (III), in Jahrbuch fur Liturgik undHymnologic, 13 (1968), pp. 39-53, first appeared during the First World War. It was found written onthe observe of a holy card of St. Francis, which was found in a Normal Almanac. The prayer bore noname; but in the English speaking world, on account of this holy card, it came to be called the PeacePrayer of St. Francis. The Peace Prayer of St. Francis

Where there is hatred,Let me sow love;Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is error, truth;Where there is doubt, Faith;

Where there is despair, hope;Where there is darkness, light;

And where there is sadness, Joy.

O, Divine Master grant that I may not somuch seek to be consoled

As to console;To be understood, as to understand;

To be loved, as to love.For it is in giving that we receive,

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,And it is in dying that we are born to

eternal life.

A Message from the Director

The Faith in Action Ministry has great

news to report. Our economicdevelopment project with theApaches at San Carlos and

Whiteriver was awarded a grantfrom the Catholic Campaign for HumanDevelopment-local office. This department of

the United States Conference of CatholicBishops funds community organizing and

economic development projects. The ApacheFair Trade Crafting Co-op (AFTCO) wasawarded $5,000 to carry out a feasibility study

and write a business plan in order to grow thefair-trade business and put it more directly inthe hands of Apaches. Doing the feasibility

study and writing the business plan areimportant steps as it sets forth the strategic planfor this economic venture.

In addition a lawyer has been working pro-

bono for us to draw up the papers so they canfile as a separate non-profit organization. Up tothis time AFTCO has been working under the

guidance of the missions at San Carlos andWhiteriver and the FRC. Getting their own501c3 status allows the group to apply for other

grants. All who are involved in this project feel

blessed by God for the wondrous things thathave happened over the last 2 years. Pleasekeep this venture in your prayers.
