Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Selecting a place of worship is a very personal decision and is influenced by many things in addition to your religion. As you settle into our community, I invite you to visit our parish in person, where you will find a vibrant, active, fun-loving community! St. Paul’s is a Catholic parish splendidly located in the heart of Noe Valley, and has a fascinating history with roots in the San Francisco immigrant experience.
Founded in 1880, our community still draws upon that legacy with parishioners that hail from the Mission District, Glen Park, the Castro, as well as beautiful Noe Valley. The synergy that results is reflected in our diversity and our community’s inclusive focus. Simply put, we are a community of friends and neighbors with a strong commitment to social justice and the family values that have made San Francisco a beacon to our nation.
Come, worship with us any weekend. Masses offered Saturday 4:30 pm, and Sunday at 8:00 am or 9:15am, and stay for coffee & donuts following our 9:15 Mass, I look forward to meeting you!
Yours in faith and fellowship,
Rev. Mario P. Farana, Pastor
