The Covenant Program, a daylong retreat has been designed to provide this common experience.  In addition, it will clarify expectations of membership at St. Francis. 
Although certain groups of parishioners are required to attend as part of their sacramental or Quinceañera preparation, all new parishioners are encouraged to attend.  It is our hope that over time, this program will reach all parishioners.  
The Covenant Program is designed to be a “one-time experience”.  Therefore, when parents have attended in preparation for marriage, they do not need to attend again in preparation for their first child’s Baptism.   Or after they have attended for their first child’s First Communion, they do not need to attend again for younger children.
