Welcome to Saint Francis!
Grace and Peace in
the name of Jesus Christ! Saint Francis is a dynamic and
grounded community serving Christ and the surrounding area
through acts of worship, compassion, and teaching. We encourage
a sense of belonging and mutual service within our fellowship.
Family, youth and children's ministries; short and long-term
educational opportunities; and meaningful worship are all part
of our life together. Wherever you are in your life, or
whatever interests you may have, we have a place for you at
Saint Francis.

St. Francis UMC Vision Statement
We seek to be an inviting, Christ-centered
community identified by compassion and Christian love; devoted to spiritual growth and providing refuge from the clamor
of the world.
