About this book
Clare of Assisi modeled her life on the humanity of Jesus who, as she said, “was placed poor in the crib, lived poor in the world, and remained poor on the cross.”
Nobles and peasants sought after her prayers, advice and healing touch. Clare refused to be defined by the traditional roles for women in her culture and in the church; she held fast to her inner truth.
Fifteen meditations, each with a story from Clare’s life, reflections, Scripture and a closing prayer, pass on her legacy for individuals and prayer groups. The authors, Sisters of Saint Francis of Rochester, Minnesota, served on the staff of the Franciscan Sabbaticals Program at Tau Center in Winona.
