    Greeted kindly, only one member has approached me and asked me my name. Didn't see her this morning. New to the area and this morning was my 4th visit. Of course I'm going back there because I feel safe and comfortable.
  • By John Neuman
    St Francis Xavier Catholic Church is a vibrant faith enriched community. The parishioners are a wide diverse group supporting the true mission of Jesus. Physically in the church you see the hand of God in the beautiful frescoes and structure of this historic Catholic church. Visit and be awed by what the Holy Spirit can create through man.
