The day was entirely dedicated to the voting of motions discussed during these past few days in the various regional Coetus groups. The following themes were looked at : the revision of the duties of the Econom and of the finances; the authority of the Conferences; the General Delegation; the juridical definition of the Provincial Delegation and of the Provincial Delegate; changes to the Directory for the Celebration of the Provincial Chapter; the Custos Capitularis; the function of the provincial Secretary; collaboration between jurisdictions and conventions for individual friars and communities; updating the Constitutions regarding our relationship with the SFO; naming a Religious Brother as Guardian; the study of the English and Italian languages for all friars in temporary vows.
At 8.30pm, at the Cathedral of St. Rufino, the diocese of Assisi celebrated the Solemnity of Corpus Christi: after Mass there was the Procession with the Most Blessed Sacrament which went through the whole city to reach the Upper Basilica of St. Francis. The Capitular friars participated in the liturgy as a sign of communion with the local Church.
