We love us some Saint Francis. Ok, that sounds - irreverant. But somehow, the idea of a man who was deeply devoted to the poor also caring for the animals is comforting, and although saints aren't generally part of our daily life, and garden statuary is not especially cherished in our household, this Saint Francis statue is beloved.
A non-garden bit of wisdom from Francis: "The true peacemakers are those who preserve peace of mind and body for love of our Lord Jesus Christ, despite what they suffer in this world."
