St Francis Biography

Did you know that Saint Francis was once a knight in shining armor in his youth? Born in Assisi in 1182, he renounced his wealth after a carefree childhood and committed his life to God.  He led a life of evangelical poverty while preaching the love of God to all.  Establishing a way of living which a number of his companions followed, his order gained the approval of the Holy See.  He founded an order of nuns and a society of laypersons who practice penance while living in the world.  He died in 1226.   Feastday: Oct. 4th

Therese DVD

St Therese of Lisieux is one of the most well known and loved saints of the Catholic Church. She is known for her “liitle way” or as Mother Teresa of Calcultta says; “We need not do great things, only small things with great love.” She was a simple, humble soul who was deeply in love with her Savior, Jesus Christ. St Therese lived in France in the late 1800’s. She died at the age of twenty four but in those short years she attained a level of sanctity and intimate union with Jesus that is extremely rare. Her autobiography; “The Story of a Soul” is a classic. St Therese of Lisieux pray for us!
