ST. FRANCIS ICON NOTE CARDS


St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226) is the founder of the Franciscan Order and one of the most famous and beloved saints of the Church. He renounced worldly wealth, preaching the importance of simplicity and poverty based on the ideals of the Gospel. He was known for his love of nature and animals, especially birds.

In this contemporary icon by Sr. Mary Charles McGough, OSB., St. Francis reveals the Stigmata while surrounded by the brilliance of the natural world – including beautifully rendered birds and flowers. The back of the note card describes significant elements in the icon along with a short biography.

10 blank cards with envelopes. 4 3/8" x 6"
