FRANCIS AND THE SAN DAMIANO CROSS Meditations of Spiritual Transformation by SUSAN SAINT SING, Ph.D.

Description

FRANCIS AND THE SAN DAMIANO CROSS uses the cross of San Damiano–the cross that spoke to Francis of Assisi–as inspiration for personal reflection. Susan Saint Sing recounts the spiritual and physical transformation of Francis in his quest to "rebuild" the church–a quest that began in the small, broken-down church of San Damiano but was the catalyst for a much broader reconstruction. These meditations detail and explain the images on the cross itself and, more importantly, explain the powerful message of the cross–transformation. Paper.
