This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis Bernardone was one of the liveliest young fellows in Assisi. His family was rich, and he was always spending money and making merry with his friends. But God decided to shake Francis out of his thoughtless life: He spoke to him, telling him to give up his pleasures and serve Him instead. At first Francis shrank back in fear, but soon he discovered that giving everything away and becoming a poor beggar to serve Christ did make him free and truly happy. Soon, two important men in town came to join Francis. A 15-year-old girl named Clare heard about these holy friars. She wanted to do the same as they, but her father wanted her to marry. So one night Clare slipped out of her family's castle to go meet Francis and the other friars to give herself to God as a nun. She gave away her beautiful clothes and put on a poor grey dress like a peasant girl, with a rope as a sash. Then she joyfully bent her head while Francis cut off her beautiful long hair. God was pleased with Francis. Even the animals seemed to know this, because they listened to him. Francis spoke to the fierce wolf of Gubbio, who had everyone terrified, and the wolf became gentle as a puppy. At the end of Francis' life he received the wounds of Christ in his hands, feet and side, making him even more like his Master in Heaven. Finally God called Francis to Heaven, there to rejoice forever with an even greater joy than any happiness he had ever known on earth.

Download or read book St Frances Cabrini Catholic Coloring Book written by Mary Windeatt and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the time she was a little girl in Italy, Frances Cabrini had wanted to be a missionary sister in China. But as events turned out, she found herself heading not for China but for the United States. Thus in 1889 Mother Frances Cabrini and six other sisters set out on a creaky old ship for New York City to help the poor Italian immigrants there who often could not speak English, had no work, and were even losing their Catholic Faith. Although she had almost no money, in a few weeks Mother Cabrini and the sisters had opened up a school and an orphanage. The sisters went door to door begging for food, clothing and money. People gave generously, and Mother Cabrini opened up more and more schools and orphanages, convents and hospitals in other cities-even in Central and South America. Obstacles seemed to disappear miraculously. People were amazed and began to say Mother Cabrini was a saint, but she said that that was nonsense, and that her only secret was perfect obedience and trust in God. Years ago she had said that even the whole world was too small for her missionary desires; now it was clear that this was true. She was helping to save many souls. After many years, Mother Cabrini became a United States citizen. Then after she died in 1917, so many miracles took place that the Pope declared her a saint. Thus the little Italian girl who wanted to go to China was the very first U.S. citizen ever to become a canonized saint.

Download or read book Saint Francis of Assisi Illustrated written by G K Chesterton and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-17 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis of Assisi is, after Mary of Nazareth, the greatest saint in the Christian calendar, and one of the most influential men in the whole of humanHistory. By universal acclaim, this biography by G. K. Chesterton is considered the best appreciation of Francis's life--the one that gets to the heart of the matter.For Chesterton, Francis is a great paradoxical figure, a man who loved women but vowed himself to chastity; an artist who loved the pleasures of the natural world as few have loved them, but vowed himself to the most austere poverty, stripping himself naked in the public square so all could see that he had renounced his worldly goods; a clown who stood on his head in order to see the world aright. Chesterton gives us Francis in his world-the riotously colorful world of the High Middle Ages, a world with more pageantry andRomance-General-General-Generalthan we have seen before or since. Here is the Francis who tried to end the Crusades by talking to the Saracens, and who interceded with the emperor on behalf of the birds. Here is the Francis who inspired a revolution in art that began with Giotto and a revolution in poetry that began with Dante. Here is the Francis who prayed and danced with pagan abandon, who talked to animals, who invented the creche.
