My favorite Saint - St. Francis of Assisi (1181/1182-October 3,1226) founded the religious order known as the Franciscans. He became renowned for his boundless love for animals and nature and on October 4th there is a special ceremony known as the Blessing of the Animals worldwide. His statue stands proudly on the grounds of our local church. Saint Francis is my entry for the current contest!!!!!!!!!
