Five Wounds of Saint Francis

OUT OF STOCK

Many saints have borne the stigmata - those wounds resembling those of Christ s crucifixion. It has been recorded that the first of all saints to brandish this extraordinary sign was Francis of Assisi, and yet, very little has been said or written about his carefully guarded secret, even by the Saint himself.

Author Fernando Uribe, OFM, explores the significance of this miraculous event with careful analysis of pertinent medieval literature, recent studies and conversations with scholars that establish the historicity of the event.

The Five Wounds Of St Francis of Assisi draws surprising and inspiring conclusions that leave the reader with a deep understanding of this great saint s experience with God.


"A study fascinating to any student of Saint Francis, which opens up his own personal understanding of the stigmata.
