800 years since St. Francis' Canticle for Creatures

Most High, all-powerful, good Lord,
Yours are the praises, the glory, and the honor, and all blessing,
To You alone, Most High, do they belong,
and no human is worthy to mention Your name.

It's been 800 years since St. Francis wrote his most famous poem, "Canticle of the Creatures." St. Matthew's is blessed to have the work in St. Anthony’s Chapel; take some time to stop by and meditate with it in the chapel to celebrate it's 800th birthday!
