The Rule at the service of the charism
A Rule of Life is absolutely indispensable for living one's vocation correctly, alone or with others. Through Christ, every person who wants to live the evangelical way of life is able to understand that life comes before the Rule, and the Rule serves as a reminder to focus on loving God and neighbour. The Rule is a tool to safeguard our freedom to love and live our lives according to the love of God and neighbour.
The Franciscan family will have the joy of celebrating the Franciscan Centenaries with various opportunities to enhance the gift of the Franciscan charism. The celebrations will be divided into several stages: in 2023, with the approval of the Regula Bullata and the Christmas in Greccio; in 2024, with the Stigmata, 2025 with the Canticle of Brother Sun and in 2026, with the passing away of St Francis. The Conference of Spiritual Assistants (CAS) decided to make its contribution by reflecting on several topics regarding the celebration of jubilees. For this year, the general theme is Franciscans in the Celebration of Jubilees divided into four subtitles: The Rule at the Service of the Charism; the Holy Gospel as a Rule of Life; the Meaning of the Crib in Today's World; the Nativity Scene in the Church. We hope that these themes will give energy to the Franciscan family at various levels and new paths of life to rediscover the joy and meaning of living the Franciscan charism today.
