Parish History:
St. Francis Parish, the se
cond Catholic parish in the City of Rochester, was established on August 22, 1937. The first Mass was celebrated in the current church on November 30, 1941—one week before the attack on Pearl Harbor brought the United States into World War II. The church’s distinctive stained glass windows were installed in 1949. The large window at the west end of the church was a gift of the St. Francis of Assisi School opened in 1952. The school campus has been expanded and beautified through many projects over the years. The convent, today known as the Parish Center, opened in 1958. The rectory, which now serves as the pastor’s residence, opened in 1952. The Gathering Space of the church was dedicated in 2001. Celebration of the Eucharist, along with multiple opportunities for fellowship and service—at the local, regional, national and international levels—characterize the faith family of St. Francis of Assisi Parish. You are cordially welcome to visit and join our faith community!
