Lenten Message from Father Dan. - Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM talks about the "Cosmic" Christ

A Lenten Message from Father Dan


“Most high glorious God, enlighten the darkness of my heart and give me, Lord, a correct faith, a certain  hope, a perfect charity, sense and knowledge, so that I may carry out Your holy and true command.”
--St. Francis of Assisi, The Prayer Before the Crucifix at San Damiano  
This simple prayer from St. Francis strikes me as so appropriate for Lent. At this time of year we’re called in a special way to deepen our awareness of Christ’s suffering, death and resurrection.

In the spirit of St. Francis, we at Franciscan Media work daily to spread the Good News that is Jesus Christ, helping Christians grow closer to God. We publish St. Anthony Messenger, books, and online digital resources of all kinds. All these efforts are a partnership with you, our loyal benefactors. Your contribution is a key part of our effort to spread the Gospel.

Will you help us? Would you consider donating $50, $75, $100 or more so that we may continue to evangelize in the spirit of St. Francis? Your tax-deductible contribution in any amount touches thousands with the Good News every day.
