The Transitus of St. Francis of Assisi
Saturday, October 3, 2026 · 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM PDT
Mission San Luis Rey Parish, 4070 Mission Avenue, Oceanside · Oceanside, CA
About this event
Transitus is not a sad farewell but a solemn yet joyful affirmation of St. Francis’ total surrender to God’s will. In his final days, Francis spoke of dying as embracing “Sister Death,” reflecting his deep trust in God’s plan . This perspective shapes the liturgy: it is solemn but not sorrowful, and it inspires Franciscans to live the Gospel fully until the end of their lives. Join us in the parish Church with our Presider, Bishop Michael Pham, for a prayer service beginning in the Mission San Luis Rey Parish Church at 7:00 p.m., ending at the Mission Church.
