Devotion to Our Parish Patron Saint
To help us know more about St. Francis of Assisi, our Patron saint, we will provide new tidbits of information about St. Francis of Assisi on a webpage devoted to him. Click here to view
Prior to Mass on weekends, we will recite the St. Francis of Assisi Parish Prayer.
Following daily Mass, we will recite the Prayer of St. Francis.
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace, where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
