Advent and Christmas were joyful at St. Francis’ Episcopal. We held our Children’s Pageant and Choral Services on Christmas Eve, with lovely decorations outside the entrance of the sanctuary, and with our clergy wearing their festive Christmas vestments. Earlier in Advent, we made Advent Wreaths during our annual Santa Lucia service to benefit the San Francisco Food Bank. Service events included a Christmas Dinner for veterans at De Montfort House. Some of our baking parishioners made cookie baskets for attendees of the Children’s Pageant. Thank you to all who contributed and participated.
