My Favorite Saint


I've update my profile to include a picture of my favorite saint, St. Francis of Assisi. Now whenever someone looks at my profile or if I leave a comment on their blog, the picture will show up. I might change it later, but for now this is good. Above is a photo of a painting by Michelangelo Caravaggio called "The Stigmatization of Saint Francis". One day I'd like to have a reproduction of this painting for my own home. My favorite quotation from St Francis: "Preach the gospel at all times, if necessary use words." He is also the patron saint of animals, the environment and dying alone. For more information on St. Francis click here.
