The Journey Of St. Francis

 

St. Francis' journey began on the plain just below Assisi, with the lepers, with those people and things you and I dismiss in our headlong pursuit of the stone monuments and churches high up on the hill within the walled city of Assisi.  A leprosarium outside the walls in the Middle Ages. A hospital for the Germans during World War II. And, ironically, a hiding place for Jews all at the same time. Where did your journey with Francis Begin?
