Watch Sultan and Saint (Francis) FREE on PBS app

A tremendous true story about Christian/Muslim peacemaking involving St. Francis of Assisi and the Sultan of Egypt can be seen for free on your mobile device. You can watch “The Sultan and the Saint,” a new docudrama, by downloading the free PBS app which offers a variety of its programs free and on demand on any mobile device! We’re talking, iOS, Android, Roku, AppleTV, Android TV, Windows 10 devices and Amazon Fire.

This docudrama is a wonderful opportunity to learn about this amazing true story of two men on opposite sides of a conflict lasting more than a century and how they were able to make peace. A lesson pertinent to us today. The trailer is below. The docudrama is streaming on demand now at PBS for the next couple of weeks. Don’t miss it! Great family viewing.
