THE MESSAGE OF ST FRANCIS
"This is a celebration of the life of St. Francis, patron saint of the natural world. Extracts fromhis writings and from biographies of the saint are selected by Sister Nan, a member of the Community of St. Francis in London. Illustrated with stunning details and images from the fresco-cycle in the Basilica at Assisi, the book invites the reader to step into the world of St. Francis for a unique spiritual experience."
"On 26 September 1997, an earthquake struck Umbria, casing part of the Basilica to collapse. Miraculously, the fresco-cycle - part of the very fabric of the Church - although damaged, is for the moment still intact. This book illuminates defining moments from the life of Francis, and brings alive for a new generation of readers his message of peace, love and unity."

FROM INTIUTION TO INSTITUTION - THE FRANCISCANS
By Theophile Desbonnets
New condition, published by Franciscan Herald Press, hard cover, 165 pages, size 6 by 9 inches.
"A religious order is never born completely organized in the spirit of its founder. It begins as an idea with imprecise limits, an unformulated intuition, recognized one day for what it is by the founder and his first diciples. Thus it was with the Franciscans. Through what collective effort did it shift from being Francis' intuition to being the Order of Friars Minor? And what remains of the intuition at this point of the evolution?"

BROTHER AND SERVANT
By Alfred Dollman, O.F.M., translated from the German by Harold Niedzwiecki, O.F.M.
"BROTHER AND SERVANT in any language is a clarion call to members of the large Franciscan family that they must seek to prove themselves brothers to all men through service to all fellowmen if they would be true to St. Francis and his ideals TODAY. Tears and time should not be wasted on non-essentials. What is truly of the spirit of the Poverello (and of any Saint) must be assessed, treasured and applied as relevant in any era of the history of mankind. ...This booklet was not lightly written and therefore will not lend itself to swift, light reading. But it evokes such a feeling of calm and security in the midst of storm and confusion that it merits perhaps even a wider audience that the followers of St. Francis for whom principally it is intended."
