​Annual Meeting, January 25 - Please plan to join the St. Francis community as we gather in Fellowship Hall for Annual Meeting immediately after the 10 am service. Lunch will be served, followed by the presentation of the 2026 budget, ministry reports, and elections of leadership positions. Pizza, sandwiches, and beverages will be provided. Please note: the 8:00 a.m. Holy Eucharist will not be held this Sunday, January 25th so that we may gather as one community.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Lenten Devotion Series: During the season of Lent, we are inviting everyone to read selected texts from the Bible together using the Revised Common Lectionary’s “Daily Readings”. (Please note: these are not the same readings found in the Daily Office). We are looking for participants who would be willing to write and share a brief reflection (~250 words) for one or more days. No theological expertise required! Please sign up in the narthex, and take a copy of the writing guidelines. The reflections will be shared via e-mail for all participants. Lent begins on February 18th, so the first week’s reflections will need to be submitted by Monday February 9th.
A separate sign-up sheet is also available for those who would just like to receive the daily readings and reflections via e-mail. Please speak with Susan Bastardo or John Bell if you have any questions. If you would like to participate but cannot come to the church to sign up, please contact Susan. We hope you will join us!

Financial Stewardship. We joyfully announce that 91 pledges have been received, totaling over $316,000 in commitments to date. Your generosity is building a thriving future for our parish—thank you! Our budget for every ministry and mission depends on the pledges we receive from you. The faithful use of our treasures is foundational to our faith and to the work of God’s mission. How much you pledge is a deeply personal decision rooted in prayer. If you have not already done so, but wish to pledge, it is not too late. Please prayerfully consider your pledge and return your pledge card as soon as you are able. If you have questions about our Financial Stewardship campaign, you can contact Craig Stanovich.
