My Favorite St. Francis Quote

“Preach the gospel at all times. If necessary, use words.”
-Francis of Assisi

Hospitality to All

“The brothers should be careful not to make any place their own or argue about it, whether it be a hermitage or any other place. And whoever comes to them, whether friend or foe, thief or robber, they should receive with kindness.”
-Francis of Assisi

Look Into Their Eyes

“There should never be a brother, anywhere in the world, who sins and then, having looked into your eyes, goes away without receiving mercy, if mercy is what he seeks.”
-Francis of Assisi
