Lawrence of Brindisi on Francis of Assisi

Three Sermons for the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi, translated from the Latin.  These translations were among my very first and were translated these in 1979, then soon forgotten. Recently returned to the light of day, Capdox now presents a revised translation. An introduction is in preparation should be completed soon (once I find my notes!)

New Link update

  On 23 April (2012) I added a link to CAPDOX for the homily notes in Italian on the site of the Congregation for the Clergy. Well, CAPDOX now has a link to the English version of these notes. Under the links tab in the top menu, choose Liturgy and Lectio Divina. Now you'll find there  Congregation for the Clergy - Homily Notes and Congregazione per il Clero-Suggerimenti Omiletici.

New Link

Squirrelled away in a recess of CAPDOX are a few links that I use to prepare for the Sunday Liturgy. (Click on LINKS on the top menu on the home page. Then click on the first option "Liturgy and Lectio Divina" ... and there you are!)
There is a new link there now .... 'Congregation for the Clergy'. When that page opens you will find homily recommendations for the Sunday Mass. I am not sure when the homily appears for the next Sunday. The page is in Italian.
Back on the Liturgy and Lectio Divina list, and immediately below the "Congregation for the Clergy" link, is the link to "Biblia Clerus", also published by the Congregation for the Clergy. With a variety of useful resources, and available in different languages, this site offers a lot to the explorer.
