Saint Francis of Assisi: Brother of Creation

4.3/5 ( ratings)

When a small village was plagued by a wild wolf, it is told that a humble friar named Francis came and met the predator with nothing but his gentle words and turned the wolf from a menace to a welcome citizen. This graceful man, who spoke to each part of creation as a sister or brother, has become one of the most beloved of all saints. Saint Francis of Assisi is an essential devotional reader for forming a per-sonal connection to the spirit of this modest Italian sage. Mirabai Starr compiles stories, prayers, and translations of Francis writings to help readers discover a nourishing devotion to God and a profound compas-sion toward all living things.
