Masses in Assisi

Masses in Assisi is a journal of town life, spiritual celebrations and rural hikes in and around the home of Saint Francis and Saint Clare. With its historic insights and thoughtful anecdotes, it captures the spirit of Assisi in ways few single-day visitors experience. Readers will learn of devotions, history, art and cultural practices found in Assisi's religious communities. Using a journal format, the author shares numerous Mass celebrations in churches, convents and monasteries, interspersed with walks on Mount Subasio and through rural Umbria. Masses in Assisi also provides Mass schedules for twenty locations, including Assisi's main basilicas, her cathedral, San Damiano, the Eremo delle Carceri, ancient churches and lesser known convents and monasteries.
