Homily #151004b ( 28min) Play - Fr. Bernard Geiger, OFM Conv. on the feast of St. Francis of Assisi explains the role of St Francis in renewing the Church of his time, having been told by Jesus through the crucifix at San Damiano to rebuild my Church. He then reflects on the response of so many who are called to play an important role in God's plan, 'Who am I Lord to do such a lofty goal'. Part of the answer is to ask God who He is, then we can start to be authentic disciples of His with a healthy humility. Listen as Father outlines all this in St. Francis' life and how we should imitate him.
