Francis of Assisi on renewing our relationship with Creation and one another

For Francis, reverence for the poor and marginalized, reverence for Creation, the way of dialogue and active peace rather than power and violence, all flow from one connected source – how God is: a God who is humble, relational, alongside and creative. Francis didn’t teach that theology in words – he lived it in an engaged life.  In a time when the environment and the climate are in crisis, and those in power prefer to build walls rather than relationships, we need the witness of Francis of Assisi. We will explore how to walk humbly with God, the created world and one another.
