In honor of the 800th anniversary of the first live Nativity Scene Greccio, Italy our pastor Fr. Alejandro, OFM Conv. lead a discussion at Canterbury House on Nov. 28. The roundtable touched on the Franciscan history and overall significance of that act by St. Francis of Assisi on Christmas Day 1223. Attendees talked about how the Nativity Scene is expressed today in our parish and how the poverty of the Holy Family can inspire us in our own work with the poor, the immigrant and the marginalized in Chicago 2023.
