"It is a joy to have taught at the FST, where the spirit of Saint Francis and the Gospel of Our Lord are not just taught, but lived."
A scholar and teacher of international repute, Kenan is in a league of his own. With a remarkable sense of mission he is continually writing books, educating students and general readers about the spiritual life. Ceaselessly traveling and lecturing, he brings the words of the Gospel and Saint Francis to an international audience. A spirited and animated teacher, students at FST have been crowding into his popular classes since 1967. In recent years he has traveled and taught in mainland China, learning the language in order to unite the Christian ways of thinking with Asian ways of thought. Having served in every conceivable capacity from local chaplain to international lecturer, Kenan Osborne has, in the truest sense, been the bridge between the old, pre-Vatican II world and the contemporary global village we now inhabit.
