Francis of Assisi was an Italian Catholic friar and preacher, founder of the Franciscan Order. He is known worldwide for his deep devotion to God, his love for creation, and his life of poverty and humility. His words and example have inspired millions of people over the centuries. His poetic work, though not vast, is marked by simple and direct language, expressing an ardent love for nature and all creatures, seen as reflections of divine goodness. The "Canticle of the Creatures" is his most famous legacy.

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace! Where there is hatred let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy.

 

"Prayer of St Francis" (attributed)
