St. Francis and St. Clare of Asissi

The Franciscan path is above all a way of following Christ, of walking in the footprints of Jesus. But it is inspired by two extraordinary people, Francis and Clare, thirteenth century Italians from the small city of Assisi in central Italy. In this section you can find out more about them, about their time, about Assisi itself, and about the tradition which has grown up around them. You can also read why some present day Anglican Franciscans have been inspired to follow in their way.

Francis first wrote a very brief Rule for his brothers in 1209, and this was approved by the Church. It was superseded in 1223 by a fuller Rule, which has continued to shape the lives of Franciscan brothers over the centuries. Francis spent most of his life on the move, though he interspersed his preaching with periods of withdrawal for prayer. It was during one of these times of retreat that he received the Stigmata – the marks of the crucified Christ in his own body. For the final two years of his life he suffered constant pain. He died in 1226, and as he died blessed his beloved city of Assisi. He was buried in what became the great Basilica of St Francis, and declared a saint by the church in 1228.

Francis received Catherine too as a sister, and gave her the name Agnes. Then Clare and Agnes moved to San Damiano, the church where Francis had heard the crucifix speak to him. Here the first community of Poor Clares came into being. It grew rapidly, and in 1215, very much against her will, Clare was made Abbess. She held this position until her death in 1253. Two years after she was declared a saint by the church.
