Francis of Assisi — by Elisa Cuttjohn SRC

“Francis of Assisi” — by Elisa Cuttjohn SRC, from the “Mystical Italy” issue of the Rosicrucian Digest

Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) is one of the best known Mystics in the world, from the Christian Tradition. Soror Cuttjohn gives us a moving portrait of this Italian mystic who revolutionized his own Church, and inspired the world with his praise of Divine Love shown through Nature. In a time of strife, Francis is a bold reminder of the power of forgiveness and welcoming acceptance.

Mystical Italy:

Join Imperator Christian Bernard and all of the Grand Masters from throughout the world for the 2019 AMORC World Convention taking place in the spectacular city of Rome August 14-18, 2019:

Following the World Convention in Rome, join Grand Master Julie Scott, other Rosicrucians, and friends on this journey of a lifetime through Sacred Italy.

As pilgrims in this mystical land, we will immerse ourselves in the world of the Sacred Feminine, of Francis of Assisi, the Pythagoreans, and the Neoplatonists, and will learn about many other traditions that have flourished here, including the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, and Normans.

Together we will explore Assisi, Venice, Florence, Ostia, Cumae, Naples, Pompeii, Sorrento, Capri, the Amalfi Coast, and then on to Sicily (with cultures dating back to pre-history), to visit Palermo, Taormina, Catania, Syracuse, Calanissetta, and Agrigento.

In addition to its exceptional history and mysticism, we will also experience some of the most inspiring art and architecture in the world, its sacred symbolism, and the breathtaking beauty of this land.
