Saint Francis of Assisi

Yesterday was the feast of Saint Francis, whose name I chose for my Confirmation.

Here is a thought-provoking image from a slightly time-worn prayer card given to one of my children in the 1980s.

His little brothers, the birds, listened so devoutly to his sermon by the roadside near Bevagna that Francis reproached himself for not having thought of preaching to them before.
