Grief is the normal response of sorrow, emotion, and confusion that comes from losing someone or something important to you. It is a natural part of life, however, we are not meant to go through grief alone. The group will be facilitated by Valerie Piazza LCPC. Join us and allow us to walk this journey with you. Please call the parish office 462-0042 to register – limited to 10 participants. Remember your mask and social distancing.

I'm New
Our Mission ~ The St. Francis of Assisi community is a welcoming Christian family. We believe in Jesus Christ, and are guided by the Holy Spirit and the example of St. Francis. We gather to celebrate, to grow in the knowledge of our faith rooted in the Catholic tradition, and to recognize our responsibility to reach out to the world. |
You & Your Family
The life and vitality of St. Francis of Assisi thrives on the commitment of the many people involved in the various ministries of the parish. Currently, we have over 30 committees and ministries for all ages. We encourage you to consider participation in one or more of these areas. |
