Saint Francis of Assisi (c. 1181 – 3 October 1226), born in Italy, is one of the most beloved and influential figures in Christian history. He is renowned for his profound spirituality and dedication to a life of poverty, simplicity, and service to the poor. Francis experienced a transformative moment of divine revelation that led him to renounce his family’s wealth and worldly possessions to live a life of radical devotion to God. He founded the Franciscan Order, which emphasized poverty, humility, and the care of God’s creation. His deep love for nature and animals is exemplified in his famous “Canticle of the Sun,” which praises God for all aspects of creation. His feast day is celebrated on October 4th, and he remains a symbol of Christian humility and love for God’s creation.
