St. Francis Deaf Catholic Church invites all Deaf, Deaf/Blind, and Hard of Hearing persons and their families to experience, throughout their lifespan, their essential belonging to the Body of Christ. We welcome, value, and encourage persons who are Deaf to belong fully in our Church Community as full and active participants. Our staff is here to facilitate this active participation by providing spiritual formation for Deaf persons of all ages.
