About this book
“Here at last is a way of Franciscan prayer that is a way of Franciscan living.” — Murray Bodo, OFM
Using St. Francis’ own Prayer Before a Crucifix, and drawing on stories of Francis and his followers, medieval and modern, and on his own years as pilgrim guide and retreat director, Fr. André Cirino opens up how to pray and live in the light of faith, hope and love so that we may come to know and live the will of God.
The way of prayer here is not for the spiritually timid: it asks you to live what you pray and pray what you live, and it gives practical aids to make that happen, prayer by prayer and step by step. With color photographs from Franciscan pilgrims.
