Original San Damiano Crucifix.
Our Lady of the Angels Church and the Portciuncula where Francis and his Friars lived, prayed, and where he died.
The Rose Garden when he threw himself into the thorns on the roses when temped by impure thoughts. Miraculously after that trial, God removed the thorns from those rose bushes. When we looked up, we saw the live doves cooing sweetly.

Being in Assisi at the tombs of Sts. Clare and Francis, we were inspired to choose St. Clare (girl babies) and St. Francis (boy babies) to be the Patrons of the new prayer apostolate for the Restoration of Relationships between babies and their parents who have aborted. This Apostolate is being launched at the beginning of this Jubilee Year of Mercy through Preborn Jesus Ministry and Jesus - The Divine Mercy Foundation.
The Pro-Life Divine Mercy Icon was placed below the original San Damiano Crucifix that spoke to Francis in the 1200's to restore His church.
Sister from the Poor Clare Sister's accepted the Original icon and assured us of their prayers for this new initiative.
Father blessed us at the tomb of Francis and Mass will be offered for this new branch of our ministries.
This new apostolate is the fruit of reconsecration to Jesus through Mary, The Ark.
Please join us in praying with St. Clare and St. Francis for the Restoration to begin.
As we make our way to the Basilica of St. Clare we catch a glimpse of the magnificent sunset.
Prayers are prayed before the original San Damiano Crucifix.
We went to evening Mass at the church in the Piazza del Comune (The Town Square) where Francis renounced his wealth before the Bishop, his father, and the townspeople.
