St Clare Of Assisi Runaway Rich Girl

 

Clare had everything a young girl could want: wealth, a loving family, and a handsome nobleman who sought her hand in marriage. But Clare had heard a young man named Francis speaking about the love of Jesus. She wanted to share in the poverty of Christ and serve the poor, just like Francis—and she could not do that as the wife of a nobleman. That left Clare with only one option: to run away.

Follow Saint Clare of Assisi as she runs away from the only life she has ever known and opens up a radical new path of holiness for women as foundress of the Poor Clares. This remarkable story of courage, faith, and selfless love comes to life in this vibrantly illustrated, full-color Shoujo-Manga style graphic novel. Winner of an Association of Catholic Publishers (ACP) Excellence in Publishing award.
