Sunday Experience
Liturgy Schedule
Our Sunday worship services, called liturgy or Mass, include hundreds and thousands of years of tradition while incorporating our local culture to make for a beautiful celebration of God's greatness and love for his children which is shared with over a billion Catholics worldwide plus those that have gone before us. We invite you to join us for this weekly celebration. Our full liturgy schedule is available on our website; click here to view it. If it is your first time coming to St. Francis or even participating in a Catholic Mass, please feel free to stop by our Parish Information Center in the Gathering Space to meet some friendly faces who can help you get acquainted with our parish. They also have a booklet to give out which outlines our liturgy/Mass.
