Sunday 9:15 am We gather for conversation and fellowship as we learn about God through Scripture, nature, experience, and in our life in community at St. Francis, with particular focus on grief work and support for caregivers. |
Serving OthersCoffee Hour
A great way to start! What's Sunday morning without fresh coffee? Anyone can sign up to help make the coffee or provide light food for Coffee Hour. It's a simple and beloved ministry! In the narthex after 8 am service, in the parish hall after 10:30 am service, in the narthex after 12:30 pm service. Greeting
Hospitality comes in all forms at St. Francis. If you are an extrovert who loves to welcome people, consider welcoming people to church on Sunday mornings. Additional opportunities to serve on the Hospitality Team are always available. Ushering
Ushers take the hospitality at the front door and bring it into the sanctuary. From passing out bulletins to bringing forward the bread and wine, ushers are an important part of Sunday worship. |
Serving in WorshipReaders
The Liturgy of the Word is our chance to hear and reflect on Scripture together. If you love to read Scripture and would like to share this love with the community, there are opportunities to read every Sunday throughout the year. Acolyting
Whether you are young or young at heart, you can become an acolyte and assist the clergy on Sunday mornings. It takes many hands to bring the Liturgy of the Table to life, and acolytes are an essential part of our shared worship. Eucharistic Ministry
Once the bread and wine have been blessed and consecrated by our priest, they are ready to share with the community. Eucharistic Ministers offer the chalice of wine to everyone seeking communion. It is a sacred and holy service on Sunday morning. |

Welcome to St. Francis, where we seek to live into the joy of Easter. In a world that is teeming with noise and distraction, St. Francis seeks to be an oasis of peace, a sanctuary of love and a house of joy. We believe that the life and ministry of Jesus Christ calls us into being one community of faith, hope and love. We seek to know Christ, to worship Christ and to serve Christ, and we do that through community and connection.
We hope that you might join us on your faith journey. We are a church in which all are welcome and in which we try to understand the love, joy and hope of Jesus Christ. Please consider joining us for a Sunday or a season or a lifetime. We currently offer in-person service at 8 am, 10:30 am and 12:30 am in Spanish. We also gather for a "dinner church" on the last Sunday of every month at 5 pm in our parish hall and for a Taize service on the first Sunday of every month at 5 pm in our choir loft. Our 10:30 am Sunday service is on YouTube. Our Wednesday noon service is on zoom. We look forward to worshiping together.
Peace & Blessings, Brendan+ |
