Parish Mission
St. Francis of Assisi is a diverse community of faith rooted in Christ. We follow the Roman Catholic tradition seeking to become a people utterly inspired by faith and devotion to God, as lived by St. Francis. The center of our life is the Eucharist, where we come to know Christ in one another, in Sacred Scripture, and in Sacrament.
We strive to become a family with hearts open to all, sharing the joy of God’s Word and the challenge of on-going spiritual growth. We labor to transform society through acts of social justice and charity, to promote peace, and to ease the burdens of poverty, illness, and discrimination within our parish and larger community.

2018 Capital Campaign
Honoring the Past, Serving the Present, Preserving God's Gift for the Future - St. Francis of Assisi was established by Bishop Waterson nearly 125 years ago. We are embarking on a Capital Campaign to finance restorations to our beloved building, including the stain glass windows, the hardwood floors, the pews, paint and repairs, so that our church can continue to serve our community for decades to come! Many more details can be found HERE and in the bulletin.

A Message from Pope Francis
Social Networks
Pope Francis - June 2018
The Internet is a gift of God, but it is also a great responsibility. Communication technology, its places, its instruments have brought with it a lengthening of horizons, a widening, for so many people. It can offer immense possibilities for encounter and solidarity. May the digital network not be a place of alienation. May it be a concrete place, a place rich in humanity.
Let us pray together that social networks may work towards that inclusiveness which respects others for their differences. -
