Secular Franciscans in Broken Arrow & Tulsa
Who are the Secular Franciscans?
We are a community of Catholic men and women
who work and live in the world and seek to
pattern our lives after Christ in the spirit of Francis. We believe that as human beings and Christians, we have such a sublime vocation that we can not fulfill it alone. In our common response to the Gospel, we work together in community toward a deep evangelical life and toward communion with all people. This is our way of life.
800 years ago in Assisi a man named Francis was
called by God to "Rebuild My Church". The
times were difficult; war and greed were rampant. He chose the life of Christ as his guide. People began to follow him embracing his values of poverty, joy, simplicity, gratitude and love for all God's creatures.
