So dearly did Francis love fire that, however pressing the need, he would never allow any friar to throw burning or smouldering wood from one placed to another, as is often done; he wished them to lay it properly on the ground out of reverence for God Who created it.

What if the Portiuncula Hermitage
ReplyDeletehttp://portiunculathelittleportion.blogspot.com earned a penny every time
you searched the Internet? Or what if a percentage of every purchase you
made on-line went to support our cause? Well, now it can!

its advertising revenue, about a penny per search, to the charities its
users designate. Use it just as you would any search engine, get quality
search results from Yahoo, and watch the donations add up!
