Deeply influenced by St Francis of Assisi, Clare refused to marry, as her parents wished, and fled to the Porziuncola Chapel below Assisi. On March 18, 1212, Francis received her vows, and thus began the Second Order of St. Francis. Many joined Clare, including her mother and her sister (St. Agnes of Assisi), and soon the Poor Clares were housed in the church and convent of San Damiano, near Assisi. Clare became abbess there in 1216.
