About : Website Ownership
Franciscanseculars.com is a project of, owned and crafted by, Elizabeth Finnis. This website shares some wonderful information about Franciscans from their foundation in the Umbrian hills of Assisi to modern Franciscans from around the world. Elizabeth does not represent the OFS and this website is not affiliated with, nor endorsed by, the Secular Franciscan Order – the Ordo Franciscanus Saecularis, specifically it is not the on-line presence of the Ordo Franciscanus Saecularis in Great Britain, nor of any fraternity. It is however full of wonderful information to assist Secular Franciscan Formation and Discernment.
