The Dream of Pope Innocent III
Pope Innocent III had a dream of 2
men holding up the Lateran Basilica as it is about to fall. One is St. Dominic and the
other is St. Francis of Assisi.
The next day as St. Dominic is on
his way to see the Pope he meets a beggar. The beggar is St. Francis.
Both men travel together to see the
pope who immediately recognizes the meaning of his dream - "The
orders of these two great men will be like columns which would save the
church from falling apart."
