		<itunes:summary>I was invited to paint during another Sunday morning service today at Eastminster Presbyterian Church in Ventura, CA. Today's theme was "Why the Bible" and the simple answer is because it provides a map to the road we are all on. So, I thought if the time I was in Assisi last year and this wonderful countryside road that lead from the hilltop city into where the fields. This is the same valley floor that San Francesco gathered his co-laborers to serve the poor and dejected, the lepers and homeless. It is there that the Franciscan order was developed and continues today.

So, here is the painting "Road from Assisi" that was created in about 70 minutes during the service today. Click the image to view it larger.
