Please, join the Capuchins and the whole Franciscan family as we commemorate the Transitus – the passing into eternal life – of Saint Francis of Assisi. The service will begin at 7 PM, followed by some refreshments.
Tonight is when all the Franciscans around the globe and all who cherish the memory of St. Francis gather to remember and tell stories.
We have a simple story to tell: the story of Francis’ Transitus – or passage – from this life to eternal life.
And we tell the story in the simple and faith-filled words of Thomas of Celano, one of the early biographers of Francis.
We tell this story to remember our heritage, renew our Christian faith, and evoke our Christian hope, after the example of our Seraphic Saint. Francis of Assisi
Peace and all Good,
The Capuchin Friars & Staff

Throughout his life, St. Francis of Assisi was drawn to the Humility of Jesus and desired to live that through poverty and penance. Time and again, he meditated upon Christ’s Incarnation, the Passion, and the Eucharist to learn Humility from Christ Himself.
During the “Food and Francis” series this year, we will reflect on these three profound expressions of the humility of Christ and learn to desire humility like St. Francis of Assisi.
Please, join us to reflect more on the humility of Christ in the Eucharist.
