Discussion QuestionsWhat is one of your favorite qualities of St. Francis of Assisi?Reflect on these words of Jesus: "I did not come to be served, but to serve" (Matt 20:28)Pope Francis has described his approach to leadership as patterning after that modelled by St. Francis. He quotes St. Francis' words: " “Because I am the servant of all, (in Latin, ‘servus omnium’) I am obliged to serve all and to administer the fragrant words of my Lord to them.” How is God inviting you to serve, in areas where you have authority?Think about a challenging leadership problem and ask for the Wisdom of the Holy Spirit to gain insight in how to love, and lead well in that situation.
