Why, why I keep asking myself — why would anyone take a statue of St. Francis and an angel reading a book at his feet.
We are Franciscans and these statues were taken from our front veranda recently. We kept St. Francis, our patron saint, near our front door, so that he would give a blessing to all who came and went. I saw this statue at Wal Mart awhile back and they do not have this anymore.
I have been praying that whoever took these will return them. I have included a picture of the statue with this letter. They also took a very old trunk with a curved top.
