Why did I post about the Feast of St. Francis on my Lion Lamb first today? We will never know. Click on the photo above to get some information about the Roman Catholic patron saint of animals and ecologists. It was Pope John Paul II who made this declaration in 1979, only forty years ago.
The current pontiff, Francis, is the first pope to be named after this 12/13th century mystic. One of his greatest strengths is an a broad understanding of eco-faith, expressed eloquently in Laudato Si: On Care for Our Common Home
