Show Notes

Presented by Sr. Marie Angele Sanchez, Franciscan Sisters of our Lady of Perpetual Help. Paul proclaimed to the Colossians: (Christ) is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.  For in him were created all things in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, ….all things were created through him and for him.  He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.  Col 1: 15-17 

Francis of Assisi absorbed that revelation and his life was upended!  This vision of creation and our origins in Christ shaped his theology, his understanding of who God is, and revealed to Francis how we are called to live in the midst of created reality.  Francis challenges us to take our appropriate role of ‘dominion’ over a sacred creation.  Sister Marie Angele will share his story, his continuing impact, and his challenge to us all.
