Senior Tea... 

All Senior members of St. Francis are invited to an afternoon of Tea and Music on Tuesday, February 25, 2014 at 2:00 p.m.  Join us for a time of fellowship and fun.

 

Invitations to all senior members will be mailed this week.  Please RSVP to Karen in the church office (508-829-3344) or sign-up on the table in the narthex.


Profile Committee... 

 

The Profile Committee's mission is to write an up-to-date, accurate and honest profile of St. Francis, of who we are today. The Profile will be used to communicate who we are to clergy who may feel called to serve as our next rector.
 
We did it! The Profile is now available on the St Francis website (as a PDF), and we hope to make print copies soon.
 
Thanks again to all who participated in ministry interviews, attended the listening events, provided input and feedback, and completed the survey.
 
Special thanks to the members of the Profile Committee for their dedication and hard work over many months: Dick Delorme, Caroline Galvinhill, Jane Howell, Julie Mankowsky, Greg McGurin, Nancy Pope, and Dawn Rooke.

Easter Festival Choir 

 

Second Chance. If you missed the Christmas Festival Choir, fear not, you can join the Easter Festival Choir.

 

Rehearsals will be after the Saturday service and after the Sunday 10 AM service during Lent, which begins on March 9 (Saturday service on March 8). If you are interested in singing for the Easter services, the Easter Vigil, Palm Sunday or Maundy Thursday services (all, or just one or two), please talk to Mary Been. Remember, THOSE WHO SING PRAY TWICE!
