St. Francis’ Radical Call to Peace

This Sunday, we celebrated The Feast of St. Francis with a reading from the Gospel of John and a Homily from Len Desroches on the life of St. Francis of Assisi, emphasizing his love for creation and his transformative experiences. It includes anecdotes from his life, such as his connection with nature and his spiritual journey after being a prisoner of war, likely suffering from PTSD. The homily also highlights Francis’ teachings on poverty, peace, and non-possession, framing them as relevant to both individual spirituality and broader societal issues like war and the environment.
