Francis - mystical chorister of God and creatures, saint of love and universal brotherhood, reformer of society in a spirit of love. He was born in Assisi, Italy in 1182 into a rich family. In order to put his ideal of love into practice he gave everything he had to the poor and began his mission in an era which was very troubled by wars and poverty.

The Franciscan Fathers have continued his mission down through the centuries and today they dedicate their work to alleviating the sufferings of the poor, to the missions, to the education of young people especially the little, and to social work.

Here in Korea they have schools for handicapped people, they have houses for the old and they also work in the leprosaria. Their motto is LOVE FOR ALL especially for the smallest.

The Franciscan School, mindful of the example of St. Francis, wants to teach the little ones, love for nature, love for all creation and love for all the people in the universal brotherhood.
