Formation Friday
The Beatitudes
+Blessed are the Poor in Spirit…
+Blessed are those who mourn…
+Blessed are the meek…
+Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness…
+Blessed are the merciful…
+Blessed are the pure in heart…
+Blessed are the peacemakers…
+Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness…
When Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount, to whom was he speaking?
How does our Franciscan calling rely on the message of the Beatitudes?
How does our life as a Secular Franciscan depend on our commitment to live the entire Rule? What would be missing if we don’t do this?
