SUPRA MONTEM

Pope Nicholas IV, Bishop of Rome

On August 18th, 1289, Pope Nicholas IV signed a Papal Bull named 'Supra montem catholice fidei' (Upon the mountain of Catholic faith). It was addressed to the brothers and sisters of the order founded by the Blessed Francis. This papal document established the legitimacy and canonical structure of the Order of Penance, granting its founding to Francis, then deceased for the better part of a century. This order has survived in the Catholic world as the Third Order Regular of St. Francis of Penance, a separate entity from the of the Friars Minor.
