After 1195 A.D.
In Lisbon, Portugal, after a boy named Parrisio drowned from a boating accident, his mother, refusing to allow the family to take his body to the church for his funeral and burial, prayed to Saint Anthony, promising that if her son's life was restored, she would consecrate him to the Franciscan Order.

The mother was true to her word, and when Parrisio became older, he entered the Franciscan Order.
