The Angelus

Actually, the ceremony should be more properly described as the blessing BY animals since we rejoice in the simplicity and beauty of God’s creatures and give thanks for the blessings and joy they bestow on us. This service is done in honor of the festival of Saint Francis who is widely acknowledged as the patron saint of animals. Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, was born at Assisi in Umbria, in 1181 or 1182 (the exact year is uncertain). Most of you are doubtless familiar with the broad outlines of his life. He was not studious in his early life, declined a merchant’s career, and thought to become a soldier like many of the other young nobles of Assisi. Then he began to have visions. On a cer- tain morning in 1208, probably February 24, Francis was hearing Mass and the Gospel of the day told how the disciples of Christ were to pos- sess neither gold nor silver, nor scrip for their journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor a staff, and that they were to exhort sinners to repentance and announce the Kingdom of God. Francis took Saint Francis these words as if spoken directly to himself, and Blessing of the Animals as soon as the Mass was over he threw away October 4, 2018 what worldly goods he had left his shoes, 7:00 pm cloak, pilgrim staff, and empty wallet. At last he had found his vocation.
