​One of the many lovely traditions at our very lovely St. Francis Church involves the making of origami doves which are hung from the chandeliers in the Nave for Pentecost Sunday on May 23.
Before the doves are folded you all are invited to write a prayer of petition or thanksgiving on the prayer paper.
 
The paper will be available in the narthex on Sunday, May 2, until the actual date of folding them on May 16.
​You can submit an online prayer by using this link.
 
The doves flying over us on Pentecost are an awesome, powerful sight, and a remembrance of how we are uplifted and comforted by the prayers of others. Look for the prayer papers, and take part in this beautiful connection with our loved ones
