    A power surge in church took out the power to most of our sound system during last night’s 5 pm Mass. We continued Mass but those listening on the livestream would’ve missed most of what was said. Therefore we will stream the 10 am Mass this morning with our talented adult choir! ... See MoreSee Less

    Friday is a holy day of obligation for all Catholics, when we honor the Blessed Mother's being conceived without original sin and thus preserved from any defects by God’s grace.

The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception was officially defined by Pope Pius IX in 1854, reflecting a long-held belief and teaching. See you at Mass! ... See MoreSee Less

    Our Mission

    Welcome to St. Francis Xavier Parish

    St. Francis Xavier Parish extends a hand of welcome to all as companions on the journey of faith. We are a Catholic community where diversity, acceptance and participation lead us on our lifelong journey of spiritual growth.

    As Christ’s Eucharistic family, the living presence of the Holy Spirit fires us to embrace our baptismal promises. Vibrant celebrations and faith filled parishioners are central to the communal expression of our love for God and God’s love for us.

    Our educational programs provide for spiritual growth in a friendly, open atmosphere to further develop our minds and souls.

    Opportunities for ministry abound as we live the Gospel through the contribution of our time, talent, and treasure.

    We are all challenged to “Go in Peace to Love and Serve the Lord,” as we are called to share all that we receive.
