Music at St. Francis
The Choirs
An adult choir sings at the 8:30 a.m. Sunday Mass, and, on occasion, a youth choir that sings at the 11:30 liturgy.
The Organ
![]() |
During the renovation of the interior of the church, which began in July 2023, Masses took place in Assisi Hall, located adjacent to the church. A parishioner built a “chamber organ” to support the choir and congregation in the liturgy during the period of the renovation. The builder of the instrument has written an article about this organ, with accompanying photos and details of its design; also included is an introduction to how digital organs work, plus examples of them in use. Once the renovation was completed in May 2024, the chamber organ was moved to the church to serve as a replacement for the 1910 Carl Barckoff pipe organ, which was in use until 2023. |
