Founders

The Servite Order was born in 1233 in Florence, Italy, when seven merchants responded to the inspiration of Mary(Mariamman)to dedicate themselves to serving her and God's people. Abondoning their business world, they retired to Monte Senario for a life of prayer and penance.

Servites gradually extended their presence through Italy, and soon throughout Europe, and are now present in all the inhabited continents of the world. Our Seven Founders are specially noted for their unity as brothers, despite the fact that they came from different political factions in a place torn by civil strife. Their oneness was emphatically expressed by their canonization to sainthood as a group in 1888 - the only time a group other than martyrs was so graced by the Church.
