Communal Life

At St Francis we’re looking at some exciting developments to strengthen our discipleship through communal life.  We aim to work together to live a life faithful to Christ.  

We will be taking our principles from the Third Order of the Society of St Francis https://tssf.org.uk/about-the-third-order/the-principles-of-the-third-order/and our Rule of Life from Winchester Diocese: https://www.winchester.anglican.org/rule-of-life/

Aims

· To make our Lord Jesus Christ known and loved everywhere

· To spread the spirit of love and harmony

· To live simply

Values

· Humility

· Love

· Joy

The Three Ways of Service

· Prayer

· Study

· Work

Discipleship is a journey and we look forward to you journeying with us as we move forward into a new venture.  We’ll keep you updated on ideas and invites as we go.  If you have any suggestions to make, please do that through the website email or see us in person at church.
