The title is my question. I have gone to every search engine I could find. None answers this question. I guess that means NO Franciscan,1st Order, Third Order or TOR has ever been elected a Pope?:confused:
 
Hi,

Yes, there HAVE been Franciscan popes: Nicholas IV, Sixtus IV, Sixtus V, Clement XIV!

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
