Subject: RE: Obit: The old me...
Hey, I LIKE "Brother Sun, Sister Moon"... I know it's not the best movie, but at least it was made by a sincere Catholic (Zeffirelli) and Donovan Leitch does some fine psychedelic/folk variations on Francis' songs and writings. It sure beats the network-TV Jesus movies they've made over the last few years... they were one of the reasons I gave up TV altogether. It's just videos/DVDs for us now.... anyway, lucky you, going to Assisi... the story of the San Damiano chapel is one of my favorites.

    And for the record (smile), I am not any different at all... I hope we all learn that someday. God calls each of us to love Him and recieve the gift He has given in Christ... the way to receive a gift like that is to admit you don't deserve it. When we all get humble instead of proud, God can forgive and heal us.

    You have nothing to forgive, true, but I am glad you are a person who would be willing if it were necessary. That is a precious treasure from God.

In Him,

FoF+
