St. Francis

Craig Harrison's Coffee with Jesus reflections provide a healthy cup of daily inspiration to start your day. Cover art by

As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I’m reflecting on the life of St. Francis. My middle name is Francis, I’ve been blessed to serve Saint Francis Parish for more than 20 years and I have made over 40 visits to Assisi where Francis lived in Italy.

Francis was an amazing person, embracing life with only one purpose, to point others to CHRIST. That is all of our purposes. One of the basic parts of our catechism says, our purpose is to KNOW, LOVE, and SERVE HIM!

In our daily walk, we must ask ourselves what are we doing to know, love, and serve HIM better? To know HIM means we study HIS WORD, TO PRAY and seek a relationship with HIM! To LOVE HIM means we spend time with HIM and LISTEN to HIM to SERVE HIM means we put the lives of others before our own! Saint Francis pray for us!

Father Craig, we just returned from Italy, the fifth booking for a Tauk Tour worked! Trip commemorated 40th anniversary two Marches ago. May your hips and knees and feet hold up for many more walks up and down those steps in Assisi!
