Secular Franciscan Profession

PROFESSION OR COMMITMENT TO THE GOSPEL LIFE (promises and commitments made at the time of profession by a Secular Franciscan)
I, _________________, by the grace of God, renew my baptismal promises and consecrate myself to the service of his Kingdom. Therefore, in my secular state I promise to live all the days of my life the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ in the Secular Franciscan Order by observing its rule of life. May the grace of the Holy Spirit, the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary and our holy father St. Francis, and the fraternal bonds of community always be my help so that I may reach the goal of perfect Christian love.
