Mantle of Saint Francis

The Mantle of Saint Francis is a theatrical and educational approach that uses imaginative storytelling and role-play to explore moral, spiritual, and social themes inspired by St. Francis of Assisi. Participants engage in improvisational scenarios that foster understanding, empathy, and reflection on values like compassion, humility, and stewardship. This method emphasizes active participation, collaborative learning, and personal insight, making complex spiritual and ethical concepts accessible and meaningful through creative exploration. It is often used in religious education and community development to deepen understanding of Franciscan principles in an engaging and transformative way.
