The search for a new Bishop of Los Angeles is underway! Listening sessions are scheduled across the diocese from March 22 to April 26, giving parishioners and clergy the opportunity to share their thoughts and hopes.

Since St. Francis is part of Deanery 8, our session will be held on:
📍 St. Cross, 1818 Monterey Blvd., Hermosa Beach
📅 April 12 at 10:00 AM

Your input will help shape the profile of our next Bishop and guide the search process. All are welcome to attend!

The Diocese is also seeking parishioners to serve on the Transitions Committee, which will introduce bishop candidates to the diocese. If you have skills in hospitality, event planning, or pastoral care, consider applying!

🔹 Application opens: March 21 on the diocesan website
🔹 Deadline: April 11
