Double Blessing – Lenten Mission
Michael Grogan of Michael Grogan Ministries will be with us at St. Francis on Sunday, March 19 and Monday, March 20. You may recall Michael from prior visits to St. Francis, and his work with the homeless population in Kensington, Philadelphia. Many of our members of Starfish Coffee House have paid a visit to Michael’s mission over the past few years.
Michael will present the triumphant story of God’s victory over all sources of evil, and challenges to our integrity as sons and daughters of the Father.

O God, Your Creatures Fill the Earth!
What a happy and warm-hearted event it was! The Blessing of Animals – pets and teddy bears too, all in honor of the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, our Parish Patron. Francis’ name from the very beginning has been associated with love and friendship with animals...
Saints Preserve Us…
Autumn is the season for harvest, cool evenings, and beautiful colors as the trees lose their leaves. It is also the time of year we celebrate some well-known saints in Christianity.
