Franciscan Spirit

Each one of us is embraced with God’s love. This union is not dependent on whether we worship God or even know God exists.

There are times when the interior journey is impeded by the refusal or inability to make an external journey.

For St. Francis of Assisi, the impetus for prayer was everywhere around him.

God opened a door of love deep within me, from a place I had never experienced or even understood existed.

Praying is about seeing, hearing, serving; it’s about abiding in God’s loving and merciful presence. But certain conditions are essential to prayerfulness.
