Lent at Saint Francis

Lent is in full swing at Saint Francis of Assisi parish in Bend. These photos show some scenes taking place at the parish, also in preparation for new sacraments like Reconciliation, First Holy Communion, and lots of weddings over the summer months.  Our girls Basketball team finished their season with a respectable showing. Stay tuned for more photos as spring approaches....
