A Special Welcome to St. Francis in the Valley
Wherever you are in your life journey and your journey of faith, you are welcome here at St. Francis. We are a loving community of God’s people, dedicated to living as Christ’s heart and hands in the world. We invite you to join us in worship, in fellowship, and in service to our community.
Update on Rector Search
The search committee has completed and forwarded our Parish Profile and the answers to twelve required questions to the Diocese, and they will be forwarded to the Transition Team at the National Church. Unfortunately the Transition Office is undergoing a restructuring, and our information will probably not be published until after March 22. In the meantime, keep up your prayers, and when you see a committee member, thank them for their excellent and timely work.

This year we will not have speakers but instead, using the Lenten Gospel stories, we will begin each night following the journey of Jesus geographically. Then we will entertain you and invite your participation through skits, trivia, and table discussion.
March 11: The feeding of the 5,000.
March 18: The Samaritan woman at the well.
March 25: The raising of Lazarus.
Remember that each evening begins with the Stations of the Cross at 5 pm
led by a different parish group each week.
For the entire Lenten Season, we will be serving the Soup Suppers. The homemade soups and salads begin around 5:30pm (after Stations of the Cross) in the Parish Hall, followed by the programs listed above. The dates are March 11, 18 and 25.
The cost is $6.00 per supper or $25.00 for all 5 suppers.
