St. Francis Feast Day: October 4
Francis’ mother wanted to be like Mary mother of Christ so she left her wealthy home and went to a stable and that’s where Francis was born. St. Francis wanted to be a knight but, one day he became ill and on his bed God talked to him. God said “ Francis, who can help you : the Lord or the servant ? “. Then Francis said “ Lord, what do I have to do “ The Lord said find out tomorrow. Then Francis gave up his life to follow Christ. God also gave him the powers of talking to animals. He made canticles of many things God created. He was a great man that praised God’s lovely creation through his entire life.
