St. Francis Mission Statement  
St. Francis is...
  • Where faith expresses itself in hospitality
  • Where God’s love is expressed in its fullest meaning
  • Where Jesus Christ is alive and well and celebrating in S.E. Portland 
  • Where the Gospel message of active love is made manifest.
St. Francis is...
  • Community that finds its health in attempting to serve the neighborhood in its many needs: physical, spiritual and human. In this way we form and support the people of God to reach out rather than build a safe place to be.
  • Though members come from many different neighborhoods, we call upon all to be the church concerned for the core area, inner-city ministry. This is the primary way of effecting a change in the wider community.
St. Francis is...
  • A community that acknowledges and honors the ministries in which each individual engages in their own life: family, work, and the St. Francis Community.
St. Francis is...
  • A community where theology, education, liturgy, and social involvement are all dimensions of one reality.
