Listen "S2 E9 • St. Francis’ Successor"
Episode Synopsis
If St. Francis were alive today, what would make him weep and give him hope? Today on FRIAR TIME, we’re travelling to Rome to pose that question to Bro. Massimo Fusarelli, Minister General of the Order of Friars Minor. Since being elected the 121st successor to St. Francis of Assisi in July of 2021, Bro. Massimo has made difficult decisions on sensitive topics and seen injustices experienced by migrants, the poor, and the children of war. Hear his perspectives on these matters and his answers to other revealing questions, such as: What has been the most surprising aspect of leading a worldwide Franciscan order? What words of guidance would you offer to everyone with a Franciscan spirit? I hope you’ll join me and Bro. Massimo for this exclusive FRIAR TIME discussion. It’s FRIAR TIME with St. Francis’ successor, let’s start talking! Thanks for Tuning In!This podcast is hosted by Fr. David Covertino, OFM.
