Glowing with love for God, the most blessed father Francis sought always to put his hand to courageous deeds, and walking the way of the commandments of God with a generous heart, he longed to attain the height of perfection.
~Thomas of Celano, The First Life of St. Francis of Assisi (Chapter XX:55)

- I am a professed Third Order Franciscan since 2002. I have dedicated my life to living and following the Rule of the Secular Franciscan Order. I have been the Vice-Minister and Minister of my local fraternity. Recently, my faith journey has taken me east to the Byzantine Catholic Church. I look forward to spreading the work of Saint Francis in my new found home. Even more recently I find that I am being called to walk more closely in the footsteps of Saint Francis. Our world is in desperate need a restoration of Faith, Hope and Charity. It is to this end that I devote my life.
