It was the age of knights and kings, when honor belonged to the heroes and glory was found in the battle field. There lived a brave young man named Francis, whose wish was to become a mighty warrior and conquer a magnificent castle.
One day Francis felt a calling to greater glory. God had vested upon him a very special mission that would require a supreme act of courage. For the love of God, his King, Francis gave up everything that he had and joyfully embarked upon the most exciting and unexpected adventure.
Francis: The Knight of Assisi is the remarkable story of the founder of the Order of Minor Friars and inspiration of three Franciscan orders.
