"When Clare saw Francis preaching in the town square, certainly she was aware of people's reactions to him. It would have been difficult not to have heard about Pietro Bernardone's son who had renounced his family and embraced poverty. But something about Francis and his words captured her spirit. In him, she saw not a rebel but a man whose heart had been captured by God. She longed to join him in his calling to serve others. Would we be willing to take such a leap of faith for our convictions?"
