TRANSITUS OF OUR SERAPHIC FATHER
At Darshan Institute of Theology
“Francis poor and humble enters heaven rich’’ The first year brothers at DITh along with the help of senior
brothers enacted the last moments of our founder and patron St. Francis
of Assisi in a prayerful mood and a recollected spirit. We were blessed
and honored to have amidst us brothers, sisters, friars from neighboring
communities along with members of the O.F.S and lay faithful at D.S.A
Bhavan to take part in the Transitus ceremony. Deacon Jason Pais
proclaimed the Word of God and preached an inspiring homily on the
practical application of Mercy in our day today life. The ceremony
concluded with the entire audience, with lighted candles moving in
procession towards the relic of St. Francis for final blessing.
