“Franciscanized World” Page Features Kate Campbell’s “10,000 Lures” And Desert Image

(PRLEAP.COM) The March “Franciscanized World” page features Kate Campbell’s “10,000 Lures” and Desert Image at www.fscc-calledtobe.org/living.asp on the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity website through this month.

Taken from her album “Wandering Strange”, which featured the Southern singer recasting hymns she’d grown up singing, “10,000 Lures” was composed by Kate who is inspired by “real life stories that I hear or read”. “10,000 Lures” addresses the everyday temptations confronting all the faithful. “I ran across this phrase in my notebook. At first I thought the song would explore the "be ye fishers of men" scripture but soon realized the "temptation" angle was perhaps more interesting.”

The Franciscanized World page and the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity were recently featured in Time Magazine’s profile of Catholic religious orders innovatively utilizing the Internet. The site invites visitors see the world as Saints Francis and Clare did - realistically, compassionately, finding good and holy possibility in the substance and culture of everyday life. Each month, specially selected songs and images are chosen for spiritual reflection from particular young women discerning their call in life.

“We want to present our life as a viable option for them. Personal invitation is always best; however, we became convinced that real conversations can begin by using the language of images and music.” says Sr. Julie Ann Sheahan, OSF, Directress of Vocations

Established in 1869, the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity serve in Catholic health care, education and parish ministries in 11 U.S. dioceses (Green Bay, Milwaukee, Phoenix, Tucson, Honolulu, Chicago, Marquette, Jackson, Omaha, Columbus and Steubenville).
