12th Annual Live Auction
Presented by St. Francis School
Past, Present, and Future
A Message from Our Pastor and Principal
Welcome to 12th Annual St. Francis School Auction celebrating the Past, Present, & Future. As we embark on another year together, we are both humbled and energized because we know what our community can accomplish when we come together in God’s work.
St. Francis School was founded on the principle of Cura Personalis, giving equal attention and care to the development of our faith, spir-it, heart, mind, and abilities. Together we fulfill our mission of spir-itual, moral, and academic excellence under the patronage of St. Francis of Assisi.
What does this mean to your children? You’ll hear tonight how your children feel St. Francis teaches them about their faith, helps them deepen and grow in their faith, and live life with their faith as their guide.
As we continue this journey, we are reminded that it is only through your generosity that St. Francis School is possible and will continue in the strong traditions that make our students responsible, participating citizens with a core set of Catholic values.
We begin our 12th auction full of anticipation and excitement for what our future holds and celebrate all that we have accomplished. We are thankful for all who have made this magnificent evening possible.
Yours in Christ,
Father Ysrael Bien Kimberly Fadden

Prayer of St Francis Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is error, the truth; Where there is doubt, the faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek To be consoled, as to console;
To be understood, as to understand; To be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

St. Francis Catholic Education Endowment Fund
St. Francis School was opened by St. Francis Catholic Parish in 2004 and operates as a ministry of the Parish. In the past ten years the school has grown and flourished, steadily expanding programs and facilities. The Parish provides continuing support for tuition assistance, facility maintenance, and operating capital
for the school. Two years ago, the Special Appeal created the seed money to establish the St. Francis Catholic Education Endowment Fund. Since then, individuals, firms and other entities have continued to contribute additional funds, along with a $15,000 matching
grant from the Joe Weston Foundation. We believe that all families who desire a Catholic education for their children should receive one. During the 2014-2015 school year, 19% of students received a combined total of $26,500 in need-based financial aid. Based on need assessed by FACTS, families at St. Francis qualified for a total of $49,825 in financial assistance. Currently, we are able to meet 53% of the identified need. Our goal in the future is to be able to provide 100% of funding for financial need.
To that end, the Endowment Board has organized an Inaugural Endowment Brunch. We invite you to please join us in continuing to build for the future on April 22nd for a special Mass followed by brunch.
