Saint Francis of Assisi

Roman Catholic Church

St. Francis of Assisi is a community of faith rooted in Christ. We follow the Roman Ctholic 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 Sacrement. 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 though acts of social justice and charity, to promote peace, and to ease the burdens of poverty, illness and discrimination with our parish and the larger community.
