Prayer
Prayer is an essential part of every Christian's life as we seek to follow Jesus. All are welcome to join us each Wednesday at 6 pm for Evening Prayer. We use The Book of Common Prayer and offer prayers for the parish family, the community, and the world at large.
Frank's Friends
Frank's Friends is a free monthly kids club where children ages 6-12 make cool crafts, sing fun songs, do neat activities, hear amazing stories, and share yummy snacks! We meet every 3rd Saturday during the school year from 10am to noon. Come along and bring a friend!
We are looking forward to an exciting new year of Frank's Friends beginning in September 15, 2015! Call the church (445-7149) for more information!

Outreach
We are involved in and support Somerset Area Ministries, The Boys and Girls Club, and the Somerset County Humane Society. We host free community events - a Community Picnic Dinner, Easter Egg Hunt, and Outdoor Movie. We volunteer to transport leftover produce from the Farmer's Market to area food pantries and shelters. Additionally, we commit 10% of our collection to support a variety of local, regional, and national/international charitable and spiritual organizations. These are just a few of the growing ways St Francis Episcopal is committed to loving God and neighbor.
Episcopal Church Women (ECW)
"Empowering Women to do Christ's ministry in the world." St Francis Episcopal Church has a very active ECW! We balance spirituality and outreach with fellowship and fun. Our yearly May Tea raises funds for Rwandan orphans. We maintain a fund to assist families in need. And we meet the first Tuesday of the month at 6:30 pm for prayer, fellowship, and specials programs - ranging from flower arranging, to missions, even a yearly Christmas tale.
