2nd Monday of each month
Early every Saturday morning, the members of this ministry perform the loving task of freshening the sanctuary, chapel and
sacristy of our parish for the week’s coming activities. 
2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month
An ancient tradition in the Church, contemplative prayer is a time set apart to rest in God, to open our minds and hearts
— our whole being — to God, the Ultimate Mystery, beyond thoughts, words and emotions. Quietly
consenting to God's presence and action within, we find our attention may also move outward to discover God's presence
everywhere. 
2nd Sunday of each month
3rd Sunday of each month
You have elected 15 people to serve the parish. This dedicated group advises the pastor, enhances parish life through committees, and helps to shape and support the spiritual goals of the St. Francis Parish community. At several of the masses throughout each month, a member or two from the Parish Council will be outside the front of the church, identified by a name tag. You are invited to ask questions, share concerns, or just stop by and say hello. Their goal is to be more visible, more accessible to you in order to learn your needs, interests and concerns, which will help them better to represent you as they provide counsel to Fr. Anthony.
