Please feel free to read more about our church on this site, or come in for a visit. We would love to greet you and share with you our love for Jesus Christ and for you, our neighbor.

Our Mission

 

We believe that the door to salvation is always open to everyone and so are the doors to our church.

To live by FAITH, be known by LOVE, and be a voice of HOPE in order to give ourselves in service and better the lives of others.

Weddings

 

St. Francis offers "ALL Loving Couples" the traditional Catholic Sacrament and  setting for your most sacred celebration. Noninclusive circumstances, that are so denied by other churches may prevent couples from celebrating a true catholic marriage ceremony; we here, warmly welcome "All" at Saint Francis, to include also the:  divorced, same sex, (LGBTQ).

Almighty God, to you all hearts are open,

Through the hope of the preached Gospel may the world and all peoples be saved from eternal death and darkness. For those whose vocations call them to counsel and give guidance; For those who need strength to amend their lives. For those who are severely afflicted by physical and mental pain. For those who have lost heart and feel mired in hopelessness; For all who have died, may they dwell secure with the Lord forever.  In silence, we pray for own needs and the special intentions of others, to the God who promises to return for those who live in his love. O God, you call all people to be united in you.  Hear our prayers and bring us together as one in your great love.  Through Christ our Lord. Amen

"No matter what has happened to you in the past or what is going on in your life right now, it has no power to keep you from having an amazingly good future if you will walk by faith in God. God loves you! He wants you to live with victory over sin so you can possess His promises for your life today!"

HOLY EUCHARIST 14.jpg

Lord, I Offer My Life to You.  Everything I Have Been Through.
Use It for Your Glory.  Lord, I Offer My Days to You.
Lifting My Praise to You, As A Pleasing Sacrifice
Lord I Offer You My Life.  Things In the Past Things Yet Unseen.
Wishes and Dreams That Are Yet to Come True.  All Of My Heart All of My Praise.  My Heart and My Hands Are Lifted To You

Lord, I Offer My Life to You.  Everything I Have Been Through,
Use It for Your Glory.  Lord, I Offer My Days to You.
Lifting My Praise to You, As A Pleasing Sacrifice
Lord, I Offer You My Life.

Lord Jesus teaches us, to be obedient, to His Word, to be in relationship, with Him. All familial relationships could be experienced, in Him by seeking His presence, in our lives. Master Jesus give us the grace, to always be obedient, to Your commandments, of Love, Mercy, and Justice, towards our brethren.   Amen.
