'''Blessed Agnello of Pisa''' was an Italian Franciscan friar who played a pivotal role in establishing the Franciscan Order in England. Born into a noble family in Pisa, he was among the first to be received into the order by Saint Francis of Assisi himself. Agnello was sent to Paris to establish a friary and later to England in 1224, where he became the first Minister Provincial, laying the foundations for the Franciscan presence in the country. Known for his humility and zeal for poverty, he died in Oxford after a life dedicated to spreading the Franciscan ideals of simplicity and service. | '''Blessed Agnello of Pisa''' was an Italian Franciscan friar who played a pivotal role in establishing the Franciscan Order in England.
