The ninth day of this time of grace that the friars of the Chapter are living through started with Lauds and giving thanks to God; fr. Rafael Gomez, who is celebrating the 25th anniversary of his priestly ordination, presided the celebration of the Eucharist.

The General Assembly opened at 9.00 a.m. with the prayer and reading of Admonition XXV of St Francis. The whole morning was dedicated to the presentation and discussion of the proposals for the coming three years and the afternoon was spent working on their analysis. 

The day came to an end with the prayer of Vespers and the fraternal dinner at the Christian Information Center.
