Abstract

First traces of the Franciscan presence in Peru date back to 450 years ago. Father Marcos de Niza arrived in Peru with Francisco Pizarro's expedition. According to chronicles of 1532, he commenced his mission among local people together with twelve friars.  In 1985 the General Curia of the Order of Friars Minor Conventual (OFMConv) in Rome prepared the project of founding a new Latin American mission post in Peru.
