Francis And The San Damiano Cross: Meditations on Spiritual Transformation

Author: Susan Saint Sing, Ph.D.

Book Notes
Francis and the San Damiano Cross: Meditations on Spiritual Transformation is an invaluable prayer resource that used the cross of San Damiano-- the cross that spoke to Francis of Assisi-- as inspiration for personal reflection. Susn Saint Sing, a former resident of Assisi and follower of Francis, takes the reader on a journey to the place where Francis prayed before the San Damiano Cross.

Not only does she recall her own personal journey to Assisi, she 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.
