 Purpose

The purpose of St. Francis Episcopal Church is to function as a Christian family in which all are nurtured in Jesus Christ through Scripture, sacrament, prayer, and love, enabling us to proclaim God’s love joyfully, and witness to His power.

Our Mission is to go into all the world making disciples, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, teaching them all that Jesus teaches.
