Parish Dinner Dance cancelled

Read more

Our Dinner Dance planned for November has been cancelled.

We will be in touch with all those who had purchased tickets. We have not rescheduled because of the virus.

We plan on having a raffle later in the Fall for the gift baskets that would have been given away at the dance.

Thanks to all who did such great work in preparation.

Thank you for your understanding

Baby Bottles for Life

Read more

Each October the Church in the United States celebrates Respect Life Month. As Catholics, we are called to cherish, defend, and protect those who are most vulnerable, from the beginning of life to its end, and at every point in between. During the month of October, the Church asks us to reflect more deeply on the dignity of every human life.

In October of 2019, thanks to your generosity, St. Francis Xavier Parish collected almost $3500.00 in spare change to benefit Waterleaf Women’s Center.  We were also blessed with a matching gift doubling that amount!

At Waterleaf, the Baby Bottles for Life (BB4L) “Fun”raiser is vital to their ministry.  This year, they’ve had to come up with new and innovative ways to carry on… that’s why we are providing and option to donate to our Baby Bottles for Life campaign online!

Your participation is key to their success.  Reaching our goal means they will continue to serve more women and men facing unplanned pregnancies.   With each dollar raised, you are ensuring Waterleaf can continue to equip their patients with the tools needed to make healthy, life-affirming decisions.

It’s Easy to Participate and be a “Hero for Life!” 

Simply follow the link and click the “Donate” button now through November 15.  Please be as generous as possible!

You can also bring your spare change to weekend Masses and drop into the donation bucket when you drive into the parking lot.
