Society of St Francis - electronic document archive

Popularly known as EDNA, this website is the place to find documents relating to, or created by, the Society of St Francis.  

Some of these documents are publicly available - and you are welcome to browse through these. You can find our Rule and other documents which are part of the Manual.  You can also download the Intercessions list issued three times a year by the European Province. And the links page will take you to a range of SSF and other Franciscan websites. 

The content of all documents is indexed and can be searched for by the "search" box in the top right of each page.

Members of the First Order can log on and find documents such as chapter minutes and provincial communications.  

CURRENT ISSUE: The "View" button doesn't always open the document in View mode. Try again - it usually seems to work on the second or third attempt. I'm looking into it.  

NEW for First Order members - in addition to the print format address list there is now an online address directory. Click here
