A Quiet Place

In San Francisco among the cafes and restaurants of North Beach there is a special spiritual refuge. The National Shrine of St Francis of Assisi, which welcomes all people, provides a place of beauty, peace and reflection in a hectic city. A film by John Dickerman

    THE SHRINE OF ST FRANCIS OF ASSI, THE PORCIONCOLA, IS A HOLY PLACE, AS IS THE VATICAN, BACAUSE IT IS THE HEAD OF CHRISTIANITY, AS JESUS CHRIST ESTABLISHED IT.
    I SAW THE PORCIONCOLS LAST YEAR, AND A DOCENT TOLD US ALL ABOUT THE OBJECTS IN THE LITTLE CHAPEL, WHERE ST FRANCIS LIVED,FROM THIS CHAPEL HE SPREAD THE LOVE OF GOD TO ALL HUMANS, AND BEFRIENDED THE BIRDS AND ALL ANIMALS.

    SAN FRANCISCO WAS NAMED AFTER THE BELOVED SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISSI, A WORTHY ROLE MODEL, FOR ALL.
