What's Happening at St. Francis this Week

Thursday Announcements

FATHER MARK’S ANNOUNCEMENTS 

​

1. This Sunday we will celebrate the Feast of All Saints at both services by lighting candles, reading names, and ringing bells to honor and remember of those we love but have lost. This is always a special and moving service, and I hope you will find it so again.
2. PLEDGE DRIVE UPDATE: Pledge cards can be dropped off in a designated box in the narthex this Sunday and next, or you can mail them or drop them off in the office. You can also email Ann with your 2022 pledge. On Sunday November 21 we will gather all the pledges and bless them. Following both services that morning we will celebrate with a cake and coffee reception in the parish hall. Our Pledge Drive this year is again more subdued than in years past, which just seems appropriate in that we are not quite back to normal gatherings. Nevertheless, giving has been strong and you continue to amaze with your faith and generosity. Thank you for all your support for this parish and its ministries! I believe God is using us in marvelous ways here in our corner of God’s Kingdom.
