St. Francis is one of the most beloved saints, known for his radical poverty, love of creation, and devotion to Christ. Born into wealth, he gave it all away to embrace a life of simplicity and service. Francis saw every creature as a brother or sister, reflecting God’s beauty. He is the patron saint of animals, ecology, and peace. His prayer, “Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,” continues to inspire hearts around the world. Today, let us follow his example by caring for the poor, protecting creation, and living with joy.
