As devotees of the Incarnation, Franciscans have a special veneration of Mary.
Hello, John! It is the first day of a new year and the day we honor the Blessed Mother Mary. Because Franciscans pay special attention to the Incarnation, perhaps it's not surprising that we have a special appreciation for the Mother of God. Franciscan friar Murray Bodo reflects on the life of Mary and her unique role among the first followers of Jesus in his book Nourishing Love: A Franciscan Celebration of Mary. If you want to begin your year with poetic reflections on the Blessed Mother, this book is perfect for you. |
Nourishing Love: A Franciscan Celebration of Mary is available wherever books are sold, including in our online store (the most direct way for your purchase to support our mission). You can also find the audio and ebook editions at all major distributors. |
