elcome to our Parish Website!
We are a Roman Catholic community of believers in Jesus Christ located in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey, part of the
Archdiocese of Newark.
This website is a reflection of our wonderful ministries that serve not only our members but embrace the needs of our community as well. It is our hope that you will find what you need on this website. You may view our church calendar for event’s or see the “What’s Happening” section below to find out what is currently going on.
It’s important to remember that ultimately we are about the people: the people we serve, the people we are, and the people we strive to be.
It is our privilege to invite you to be part of our Parish Family. You'll find a diverse group of individuals with a common greeting for you.
“Welcome Home!”
If you are thinking about moving to the Ridgefield Park area, we cordially invite you to make St. Francis your parish home.

“THIS IS MY PARISH”
It is composed of people like me.
We make it what it is.
It will be friendly, if I am.
Its pews will be filled, if I help to fill them.
It will make generous gifts to many causes
if I am a generous giver.
It will bring other people to worship and fellowship
if I bring them.
It will be a church of loyalty and love,
of fearlessness and faith,
and a church with a noble spirit.
if I, who make it what it is,
am filled with these qualities.
Therefore, with the help of God
I shall dedicate myself
to the task of being all things that I want my parish to be.
