St. Francis of Assisi

Every year the third graders in the PSR program dress up as a saint for the All Saints mass at church.

Max selected St. Francis of Assisi.  He thought it was pretty cool that St. Francis loved animals - and some people even said he could talk to them.  We watched lots of You Tube videos to learn more about his life.  Max's favorite fact was that St. Francis stole money from his dad to build a church.  I'm glad that isn't the fact he shared with Father when he was on the alter before mass.

It is so fun to watch my children grow in their faith.  I love that we belong to a vibrant and active parish.  I also love that I know enough about sewing that I can throw together a costume at the last minute when necessary :)
