We were one of the original Total Ministry congregations in our diocese and we still fully embrace this way of being church, with the ministries and gifts of all members discerned and valued by the congregation, and a Ministry Team, made up of lay and ordained, commissioned by the Bishop to serve in leadership along with the Mission Committee. (An example of Total Ministry is that we have a team of preachers, lay and ordained, who take turns on Sundays.) We are known in our community for being warm and welcoming to all!
We have regular services at 10 am on Sundays and at noon on Wednesdays; everyone is welcome and the church is completely wheelchair accessible. Our Sunday service is also available live via Zoom: by phone 1-669-900-9128; via computer www.zoom.us. Meeting ID 856-6687-1880, password 282827.
We built a straw-bale church using local resources, which is not only beautiful but also profoundly green. The local free meals program serves out of our parish hall, and many 12-step groups meet there also.

Services at Saint Francis in the Redwoods
When the corona virus closed our church to physically present public services we committed to continue to offer our services online. One problem was that less than half our congregation had online access (no wifi, no computer, no smart phones, nada) so we instituted a hybrid system.
