"When Clare left her home, she was completely alone. For a brief time, she met with Francis and his brothers and then took refuge with a community of religious sisters. In essence, however, she was charting her own path. Her desire was to live out her faith in a new way - a life that embraced poverty and prayer.
"Eventually she would be joined by her sister, Catherine, soon to be
known as Agnes, and other women. For each of us, even though we are part
of the greater faith community, our faith journey is an individual one.
Like Clare, we must decide how to live our faith.
