Abstract
  • 'A Year with St. Francis' invited All Souls Memorial Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C. to engage a set of stained glass windows picturing Francis of Assisi, exploring whether beauty might be a means to action. After addressing criticism of the term 'beauty,' the paper discusses Bonaventure and Duns Scotus, theories of organizational frames and imaginative learning, and reflects on the project in light of new monasticism. The paper argues that beauty is used by God to move us into action and that the parish and the Episcopal Church can benefit from a Franciscan impulse in theology and mission.
