'''The Franciscan Minims of the Perpetual Help of Mary''' (f.m.) is [[Roman Catholic]] contemplative religious order for women. It is founded in [[June 24]], [[1942]] in Zamora, Michoacan, [[Mexico]] by Reverend Mother María Concepción of the Nativity of Perpetual Help. Nicknamed as the Order of Atonement/Work of Atonement, they live a life of prayer and penance. They have a different habit, compared to other [[Franciscans]]: Their habit is maroon, wearing a green head veil and a blue veil. |

==Origins== |

The Order was founded after an inspiration received by the foundress, Mother Maria Concepcion. The foundress is said to have spoken to the Crucified [[Jesus]] during the time of religious persecution of the [[president]] of [[Mexico]] that time, [[Plutarco Elías Calles]]. |
|||
==Apostolates== |
|||
The main apostolate of a Franciscan Minim nun is the perpetual adoration of the [[Blessed Sacrament]]. They also give religious conferences to women. |
