After years of preaching, Saint Francis of Assisi returned to his native country to find that his brotherhood had expanded to 5,000 people. Although it was a group of faithful followers of God, they were constantly arguing and debating about who should be the leader, completely disregarding the fact that Francis was the one who changed them all. He new he would not be pointed a position in the brotherhood, but was fine with the idea of just being a brother.

Well the holidays are over, and I feel that they were a great success. I would like to thank Rabbi Hal and our Hazzans, Ron Fink, Mayer Grob, Sheila Pour, and Art Todras for wonderful services, but without the following people helping in someway, we could not have had these services: Iris Petersiel, Michael Kornstein, Sam Richardson, Fran Todras, Daniel Elmakis, Deb Lebman, Ellen Bernstein, Marilyn Wiener, Sonya Brockstein, Michael Schoenhaut, Barry Green, Diane Girgente and her ushers, Al Sherman, Craig Hammons, Jeremy & Isabel Schlussel, Tomomi Rubin, Larry Feldman, Jeff Scharf, Lori Shiffman, Philip Perschetz, Elizabeth Harper, Bruce Nordin, Matt Nordin, Tom McClish, and Michael Yetsin

Giovanni Bernardone, more widely known as Francis of Assisi, was a Catholic friar that founded the Franciscan Order in the early thirteenth century. The Franciscan Order, under the spiritual guidance and teachings of Francis and his disciples, became one of the largest sects of the Catholic church today. Francis’ teachings brought about a reform in the Catholic church that changed ideas on grace and salvation of the Christian

For my saint and Confirmation name I chose Saint Anne. Saint Anne was a very holy woman and was the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the grandmother of Jesus Christ. Her name means grace and in Hebrew it also means Hannah.

When I was in third grade, I received my Confirmation with the Confirmation name of Saint Maria. In the Greensburg Diocese, Confirmation names were the child’s middle name, so I did not have a choice in who my Confirmation saint would be. I chose to research Saint Lucia because her name has the same meaning as my first name. I also chose to research her because she has a very interesting, and powerful story about the trials and tribulations she went through to devote her life to

Excerpt D was taken from Chapter 5,the chapter about obedience, of the Rule. The Rule was written by Saint Benedict of Nursia for monks who were living in a communal setting underneath an abbot figure, a father head, of a monastery. The excerpt talks about general rules of obedience for the monks and Christians to follow to understand how they should spend most of their days in worship, work and study. From Saint Benedict’s book, Rule, revels how religion played an important part in early-medieval Europe.

We thank you, Lord, for calling us to the Secular Franciscan Order. We ask your pardon for all our shortcomings, weaknesses, and transgressions against our commitment to the gospel life and against the Rule.

We derive what we know of Benedict’s life from the hagiography of the Saint written by Pope St. Gregory the Great who defines Benedict as “the finest teacher of the ascetical life” (Madigan 3.51).

The Rule of Saint Benedict was written by Saint Benedict himself. Last week, we read a hagiography about St. Benedict written by Gregory the Great who obviously thought Saint Benedict was the best thing since sliced cheese. The Rule of Saint Benedict is addressed to monks and the entire book is written about how they should live their life. Which I think is funny because I thought that was what the bible did, but I guess if you think you are better then Jesus maybe you don’t really believe the bible is the only book you need. Today I will be discussing what I think is wrong with this book, the question’s I had about it, as well as the few things I liked in it.

There are many great people that have had the honor of being declared a saint in the catholic community. Some of these saints have lived very different lives. Some have always been on the right path, whereas some have started off on the wrong foot and made some bad choices. Either way they all accomplished many good things in their lifetimes, and for that they have the honor of being a saint. One of those lucky saints goes by the name of Thomas More.

The Franciscan movement was a religious order that arose out of one man's ideologies and beliefs. St. Francis of Assisi's ideals of absolute poverty, obedience, humility, and simplicity were uncomplicated and basic, but during his life and even shortly after his death these ideologies were gradually shifting and causing a great amount of debate. The immense size of the Franciscan Order combined with the mass amount of popularity that the Order gained made changes in the ideology and objectives of Francis' messages and teaching almost an inevitable necessity. Some could argue that in many ways the Franciscan Order's original ideologies were a victim of the movement's success. This is evident in the main rules of the Order, what the
