Order of Minims
The Order of Minims (Latin: Ordo Minimorum, abbreviated O.M.), known in German-speaking countries as the Paulaner Order (German: Paulanerorden), are a mendicant order of friars and nuns in the Catholic Church, founded by Francis of Paola in fifteenth-century Italy. The Order soon spread to France, Germany and Spain, and continues to exist today. The order is known for their perpetual abstinence from all meat, eggs and dairy products. Like the other mendicant orders, there are three separate components—called Orders—of the movement: the friars, contemplative nuns and a Third Order of laypeople who live in the world while following the spirit of the Order in their daily lives. At present there are only two fraternities of the Minim tertiaries; both are in Italy.
