Every year, around the feast of Saint Francis, the friars gather for a prayer service called the Transitus, to remember the passing (transitus) of Saint Francis from earthly to heavenly life.
It is also a time to remember our brothers in the fraternity who have also passed from this life to eternity.
We read out their names and each friar lights a candle in their memory, as we pray for their eternal rest.
