St. Michael's Lent

In addition to keeping the pre-Easter Lent every Catholic keeps, St. Francis had the habit of making a second "Lent" every year, starting on the Feast of the Assumption and ending on the Feast of St. Michael. During this time, he would fast, abstain, and engage in penances and mortifications to discipline himself, acquire the virtues, and honor God.

To emulate St. Francis and make the 40-day St. Michael's Lent in his honor, in honor of Our Lady and of St, Michael the Archangel, and for the purpose of consecrating yourself to St. Michael on his feast day download the prayers, supplications, litany, and Act of Consecration to St. Michael here: https://www.fisheaters.com/stmichaelslent.html

SEEK 2025 Fr. Mike Schmitz Full Talk

Mission Statement 2024

Saint Francis of Assisi Parish, with Saint Philip Benizi mission, is a Roman Catholic Parish that serves Christ the King, under the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary through the intercession of the Communion of Saints. We are in union with the Roman Pontiff and obedient to the Bishop of Helena adhering to the fullness of Catholic teaching. Everyone is welcome, but not everything goes; we stand by Catholic principles.

Our faith, hope, and love flow from the center of our parish family’s life: true worship - The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass which gives us the “Source and Summit” of our Catholic faith, the most holy Eucharist. From there we are compelled to love God, love our neighbor as ourselves and “Go make disciples…” (Matt 22:37 and 28:19-20)

Nine First Fridays Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

“I promise you, in the excessive mercy of my Heart that my all powerful love will grant to all those who receive Holy Communion on the first Friday for nine consecutive months, the grace of final repentance; they shall not die in my disgrace nor without receiving the sacraments; my divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in that last moment.” — Our Lord to St. Margaret Mary

Every First Friday of the month, Fr. David offers Mass at St. Mary in Stevensville at 9:30 am as an Act of Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Join us in this important devotion.
