Adult Christian Formation

At St. Francis, we understand discipleship as a lifelong journey traveled in the context of a loving community. To that end, St. Francis boasts a rich variety of adult education and formation opportunities, both in large- and small-group settings. 

We offer several adult formation opportunities throughout the week, which are detailed below. Between our two Sunday morning services, 9:15am–10:15am, offerings pertinent to the liturgical season (Advent, Epiphany, Lent, and Easter) are available. 

Formation Offerings during the Week
