The Life of St. Francis of Assisi - St Bonaventure

Descriere

Francis, go and build up My house, which as thou seest, is falling into ruin. To fulfill this command of Our Lord, St. Francis of Assisi (c. 1181-1226) began by restoring physical churches and continued by building up the spiritual Church. Francis' humility, purity, and true joy inspired many men and women to conversion and a deeper faith. Others joined with him in serving God and the poor; thus began the Franciscan Order.
