St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church

About this church

St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church serves west Wichita from 861 North Socora Street with an unusually broad Mass schedule. Mass is celebrated weekdays at 8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.; Saturday offers 8 a.m. Mass plus 5 and 7 p.m. vigils; Sunday Masses begin at 7, 8:30, 10, and 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Confession is offered before weekday evening Mass, beginning Saturday at 3 until the line is finished, and during every weekend vigil and Sunday Mass. Holiday schedules vary, so the parish's dated calendar is the best source before a special-day visit.

The parish aims to be united in the Eucharist and formed as instruments of peace through stewardship. High-school Catholic Youth Ministry meets Wednesdays from 7 to 8:30 in St. Ambrose Hall, mixing fellowship and games with speakers, monthly Holy Hour and Benediction, retreats, conferences, and service. Families of younger children can explore Catechesis of the Good Shepherd and parish religious education, while the campus also includes a Catholic school. For parishioners unable to attend, priests make monthly home and nursing-home visits for Communion and Anointing of the Sick; trained lay ministers make additional Communion calls every Thursday morning. Those visits are arranged through the church office.
