Product Overview
This Vision books tells the story of the lives of Saints Francis and Clare, the two very popular saints of Assisi. Francis was the happy friar who preached in the marketplace and gave up family and fortune to devote his life to God and His poor. Other men followed, and Saint Clare too left her castle to establish a convent. Helen Walker Homan has captured all the excitement and beauty of the lives of these saints form their childhood growing up together in Assisi to their profound conversion as well as their centuries-long influence on the whole world through their radical living of the Gospel and founding of two great religious orders, the Franciscans and the Poor Clares. These saints of Assisi followed Lady Poverty and found happiness. Combining the stories of Francis and Clare in one volume makes for a book that will be of great interest to boys and girls.
