Everyone knows St. Francis loved animals. Fr. Glenn, CFR thinks that's where most people stop. In the Canticle of Creation, Francis looked at the sun and saw the generosity of God, a creation that pours itself out endlessly for someone else. Then he noticed the one creature that holds everything back.

➡️ ABOUT THIS PROJECT
This year marks 800 years since the death of St. Francis of Assisi. To mark the anniversary, we're travelling to friaries across the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal to sit down with the friars and hear, in their own words, what St. Francis means to them, how they first encountered him, what drew them to the Franciscan life, and what the Poverello continues to teach them today.
