St. Francis Xavier Catholic Parish celebrates and promotes Catholicism by connecting people, growing in faith and serving in Christ's name.
Those who approach the sacrament of Penance obtain pardon from God's mercy for the offense committed against him, and are, at the same time, reconciled with the Church which they have wounded by their sins and which by charity, by example, and by prayer labors for their conversion.
