Photos of Parish Life

April 16, 2017
On Easter Sunday morning, three Masses were celebrated at the North Church and one at the South Church. Parishioners were greeted in a beautiful setting, with the altar and sanctuary adorned by bountiful hydrangeas, Easter lilies and a variety of spring flowers. We welcomed back the ALLELUIA, renewed our baptismal promises and were sprinkled with baptismal water. These photos are from the 7:30 a.m. Mass at the North Church, with Fr. Patrick Burns presiding.

On Saturday, June 15, Fr. Patrick Burns was formally installed as the pastor of St. Francis Borgia Parish. The ceremony was held during the 4:30 p.m. Mass at the North Church, with Archbishop Jerome Listecki presiding. On this special occasion, the Knights of Columbus served as an honor guard during the entrance procession. Fr. Patrick concelebrated the Mass along with former pastor Fr. Tom Eichenberger and several other priests. During the installation, the archbishop spoke about the importance and role of the pastor in the life of the parish. Then he "introduced" Fr. Patrick to his parish staff, the members of the finance and pastoral councils, and the trustees, as if they were meeting for the first time. Upon their introduction, each one proceeded to the altar and shook Fr. Patrick's hand. After Mass, parishioners congratulated Fr. Patrick in the gathering space and in the church hall where a reception was held in his honor.
