Prayerful and insightful

The readings inspire you to reflect on your life and how you are living it because St Francis was so devout and dedicated to our Lord. His way of life makes you want to imitate him but I know u could never do it as well as he did.

Advent with a Franciscan Flare!

We used these for our nightly community meal in the friary. It was nice to have some stories that connect directly to our Franciscan experiences. I especially enjoyed the ties to stories about St Francis and his writings. I'd recommend it for friars, Poor Clares, Secular Franciscans, or just anyone who has a Franciscan heart.

Not quite what I expected

I thought there would be prayers and reflections about Advent or Christ from St Francis himself. Instead, the author provided examples and stories about St Francis and offered her own reflections and prayers from the Psalms. Still worthwhile, just not what I expected. Perhaps I didn't read the description of the book thoroughly before ordering it.
