Sister Colette
(Abbess, Poor Clares Monastery, Galway City, Ireland)“In these pages, words and images take us far beyond a Francis of the birds and the bees. Here is captured the profound simplicity of the Gospel Way which he embodied and whichhis followers have continued. Allow slow reading and a lingering gaze to take you throughCreation to its Source and to the Word Made Flesh.”
