Assisi, 1181/2-Assisi, ngorhatya lwesi-3 Okthobha 1226
Emva kolutsha olungakhathaliyo, e-Assisi e-Umbria waguqukela kubomi bevangeli, ukuba akhonze uYesu Krestu awayedibene naye ngokukodwa kwabo bahluphekayo nabasweleyo, bezenza ihlwempu. Ujoyine i-Friars Minor ekuhlaleni. Ukuhamba, washumayela uthando lukaThixo kuye wonke umntu, nakwiLizwe Elingcwele, efuna ngamazwi akhe njengezenzo zakhe ukulandela kukaKristu ngokugqibeleleyo, kwaye wayefuna ukufa kumhlaba ongenanto.
