It's the eve of the feast of St. Francis. This evening we'll celebrate the Transitus. It's the traditional ceremony to recall the final moments of Francis' life. It's simple and moving. None of the profusion of Gregorian chants. Only 2 simple chants of a psalm and the transitus hymn. That's typical of early Franciscan tradition - still uninfluenced by benedictine or monastic spirituality - simple and poor to reflect the poverty espoused by the first followers.
