Fr. Ignatius, CFR gets visibly fired up about one word: seraphic. He traces it from the burning angel who met St. Francis on La Verna to the highest choir of heaven, and explains why a Franciscan's whole inheritance is to be a burning one.

➡️ 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.
