For those of you my age (No I am not going to tell you my age and since I don't do Facebook you will just have to guess.) you probably remember the song that started " See you in September, see you when the summer is through". Well believe it or not summer is winding down and we are facing another busy and exciting year here at St. Francis.
The biggest news out of here is the completion of our new 11,000 sq. ft. Faith Formation Center. We took possession of the building in mid June and just a week later used it for our summer Vacation Bible School and Summer Music Program. We use our new Holy Family Chapel for daily mass on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 9am. In just a few weeks our Religious Education classes will begin for the new year and then the FFC will really be put to the test. If you haven't wandered into see the FFC I encourage you to do so. You are also invited to join us for the dedication mass on Sunday October 3 at 11 am to be celebrated by Archbishop O'Brien.
On the weekend of October 2 & 3 in addition to the dedication mass we will hold an open house and Ministry Fair after all the masses. The Ministry Fair is an opportunity for us to highlight and showcase the many different ministries in the parish and how they effect the lives of so many here in the parish and beyond. It is also an opportunity for you to decide how you would like to volunteer your time in the parish.
This Saturday September 4th our Director of Religious Education Joanna Rapisarda will be getting married to Edward Herrera. We wish them well and pray for God's blessing on their marriage.
I promise to do better this year on updating this blog so check back often for the latest.
