Saint Cecilia Catholic Church

About this church

Saint Cecilia Catholic Church in San Francisco sets its weekend schedule at 5 p.m. Saturday and 7:30, 9:30, and 11:30 a.m. Sunday. Mass is also offered at 9 a.m. Monday through Saturday and at 5:30 p.m. Friday except holidays; all Masses are livestreamed. Saturday confession runs from 3:30 to 4:30. The church is open for prayer from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with the rosary at 8:35. Those extensive hours make the Parkside parish useful both for weekend worship and quiet weekday prayer.

Saint Cecilia began amid the Parkside sand dunes under Father Tobin, and successive buildings expanded as the parish and school grew. Children remained a clear priority even when worship space was temporary, a legacy continued through the parish school and faith formation for preschool through eighth grade. First Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation preparation follow two-year programs with Sunday classes at 8:30. Current ministries also include Chinese RCIA, Bible sharing, prayer meetings, Chinese-language classes, youth participation, greeters at four entrances, and an annual October festival supporting the school and parish children. Families considering the 9:30 Sunday Mass should note that formation classes begin an hour earlier at nearby parish facilities.
