Yesterday was the feast of St Francis

Dear Friends

Good morning

Yesterday was the feast of St Francis whose intercession and example we need more than ever.

I have attached a short biography of the saint - I think his story needs telling and re-telling especially to our young people St Joseph, guardian of creation, pray for us

Every blessing

Fr John
