The paperwork for our fishing permits still hasn't arrived. We've been told to expect a resolution in Q3 of next year, maybe. Happy holidays.

Sweet Saint Francis, pray for us!

St. Francis of Assisi, founder of the Franciscans.

Did you know his nickname was "Il Poverello" or The Poor little Man.

I've always seen him as generous and warm man, and I can imagine him being lively and extroverted. Someone you'd like to be friends with.

Coffee With A Codex is an informal lunch or coffee time to meet virtually with Kislak curators and talk about one of the manuscripts from Penn's collections. Each week we'll feature a different manuscript and the expertise of one of our curators. Everyone is welcome to attend. We meet on Zoom at 12pm Noon Eastern Time.

On October 9, Curator Dot Porter will bring out Ms. Codex 736, a collection of papal letters and instruments regarding the order of the Eremite Friars of St. Augustine of Rouen. It was written in Italy in 1475.
