Original release notes

v1.0.6 This update enriches your daily companion in two ways. The Franciscan feast calendar is now true to tradition — each saint is honored on their authentic feast day. And on the days between Franciscan feasts, you'll meet a saint of the Universal Church, with a short summary and a prayer, gently offered as a commemoration of the wider family of saints. May each day draw you deeper into the communion of saints. Buon pellegrinaggio.
v1.0.5 This update brings a careful refinement of the app's spiritual content. We've refreshed the daily saint biographies and prayers, polished the histories of the pilgrimage sites along St. Francis's journey, and verified the worldwide directory of Franciscan churches for the Jubilee of St. Francis.
v 1.0.4 Minor update to feedback and review mechanisms. Near me button added to the Explore tab to make discovering nearby sites easier.
v 1.0.3 App name is now easier to search for on your device
v 1.0.2 Added Directions button for sites and churches
v 1.0.1 Minor text updates

A NOTE ON THE CONTENT

Every chapter and site description has been fact-checked against primary Franciscan sources (Celano, Bonaventure, the Fioretti) and against the best modern scholarship. Where tradition and history part ways, we say so. The aim is content a Franciscan tertiary, a parish priest, and a seminary professor can all use.
