BAPTISM

Like most Christian traditions, we recognize baptism as entry and welcome into God’s family. We baptize infants as well as anyone who desires to be baptized. If you are interested in planning a baptism, please use the contact info in the footer below.

CONFIRMATION

A commitment to faith through confirmation may be made for teenagers or church members of any age. Typically, several area Episcopal churches collaborate to help confirmands prepare their journey to confirmation.

WEDDING

The blessing of God and the gathered community on the vows of two individuals is a powerful experience, marking the love shared by two people. St. Francis welcomes couples to use the contact info below regarding the availability of the Historic Church (Old Long Ridge Rd) or the Church (Long Ridge Rd) for a marriage service. The request should be made at least 4 months in advance of the date. After service arrangements have been made, there will be at least 3 pre-marital meetings with the clergy.

FUNERAL

As the apostle Paul noted, “We rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those who mourn.” (Romans 12.5). Funerals are those poignant moments in life where we give thanks for those whom we love but see no more, and to grieve the loss of life.
