Friary Courtyard Garden Renewal


The St. Francis of Assisi Fraternity of Sacramento, the “Secular Franciscans” are leading the effort to clean up and beautify the courtyard garden behind the high wall in the breezeway. This courtyard garden is a gem waiting to be polished and beautified. What better way to honor our beloved St Francis and St Clare to renew and use this beautiful space during the good weather months?

There are four, planned phases to this garden renewal
and many have already volunteered to be part of the effort:

• Phase I, Saturday, April 13, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
Raking, cleaning up, pruning, clearing out unnecessary or old items, etc.
• Phase II, Saturday, April 27, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
BEAUTIFICATION! Planting pots of flowers, hanging lights, works of garden art or statues, etc.
• Phase II, a CELEBRATION of the reopening of the garden!
This reopening will occur sometime in May, more to come on this so be on the lookout for bulletin, Face Book, and website announcements.
• Phase IV, ongoing monthly maintenance, led by the Secular Franciscans.

If you wish to make a donation, please send a text to Melba Hinojosa at 916-997-3319 or call the office and talk to either Manny or JD, 916-443-8084. Questions? Reach out to Melba Hinojosa via text or call 916-997-3319. Thank you for your support!

Act of Spiritual Communion

My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

Who We Are

Honoring our Franciscan tradition, St. Francis Parish is a Catholic Christian Community building the reign of God in the spirit and path of St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi. We value vibrant liturgy and personal prayer as a way to worship God and celebrate life.

We are an inclusive community respecting the dignity of all persons and supporting the journey of each person. We respond to the command of Jesus to love by welcoming all, evangelizing, supporting spiritual growth, and being Eucharist to each other.

Challenged by the Holy Spirit, we reach beyond ourselves to care for our neighbors, the poor, the marginalized, and those alienated by our Catholic Church. We aspire to be witnesses and prophets advocating for justice in the world and in the church.

All Are Welcome
