As a person born in India, I learned about St. Francis through numerous schools named after him. A lot of those schools were also shelters for animals, that is how I learned about the saint's love and compassion for all living things. His simple life and dedication fascinates me. Anything that helps me learn more about him, his teachings, or historical artifacts / pilgrimage is of interest to me.

Reading "name of the Rose" by Umberto Eco, I came across references and realized that there is a lot the we don't about his impact on the society.
