  • The Future of St. Francis | St Francis of Assisi

    Origen A Message from Fr. Rudy Master Plan Leadership Become an Ambassador Campaign Video Pledge Form Anchor 1 About the Campaign Fact Sheet - English Fact Sheet - Spanish A Message from Fr. Rudy St. Francis of Assisi has been blessed with an abundant and growing community. We are one of the largest parishes in the Diocese of Dallas with some 16,000 families – over 50,000 people – and we’re still growing! The sheer size of our parish presents numerous challenges, though, particularly to our facilities. Our sacred spaces – our church and chapel – can accommodate us as we worship, but our other facilities strain to hold us and our ministries. We need more space for meetings, faith formation, evangelization, youth, receptions, retreats and large gatherings. To address our growing space concerns, St. Francis is preparing to conduct a major capital campaign. The centerpiece of this effort is the construction of a new evangelization center and a new youth center, two buildings that would give us room to gather and to grow, to reach out and bring new people to Christ and to our parish. Other projects under consideration are renovating the existing parish center, moving our rectory off campus, expanding our outdoor spaces, and eliminating our current debt. St. Francis has retained the services of the Steier Group, a leading Catholic development consulting firm, to conduct a comprehensive planning study, which will gather everyone’s thoughts regarding our proposed plans. The study will also determine what level of support we might expect in a campaign, help us establish a realistic fundraising goal and identify campaign leaders and potential donors. On this page, you will find more information about our long-range plans and a link to take a brief online survey. Once you have read about our proposed plan for the future, please share your thoughts by completing the survey no later than January 15, 2024. I am hopeful that you will agree to share your time and thoughts with us. Your participation is crucial as we plan for the continued success of St. Francis. In Christ, ​ Fr.

  • Capital Campaign | St Francis of Assisi

    Top of Page Leader's Letter Campaign Video Our Story Mother Teresa Catholic School Our Plan Funding Mother Teresa School Financial Goals Who We Serve Ways To Give Commemorative Opportunities Campaign Leadership Frequently Asked Questions LEADER'S LETTER Dear St. Francis Family, I come to you today feeling deeply blessed to serve as your pastor. Each Sunday, I look out upon rows and rows of the faithful family of St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church. Every service is filled with not only the members of our vibrant and diverse community, but also with the joy and reverence of a church committed to the mission given to us by Christ. Your commitment, however, does not stop at the doors of our beautiful church. Our members leave every week to serve our church and community through vibrant ministries – providing meaningful education and formation of our children and youth, merciful outreach to those in need, and making missionary disciples of others. As you have gone forth on this holy mission, St. Francis has continued to grow in numbers, adding an average of 25 new families per week over the past year – over 1,000 in 2024 alone. Because of this growth, St. Francis is at a turning point and must make plans for the future. In the following pages, you’ll find the details of our plans to not only accommodate our existing family, but also the continued growth over the years to come. That is why we are launching a major capital campaign that is derived directly from Matthew 28:16-20, our parish mission: I Am with You Always. I encourage you to read the following pages carefully, outlining our vision for the St. Francis community. It is my prayer that every member of the St. Francis family can invite the Lord to lead you in discerning your sacrificial gift or pledge to fund these projects to accommodate our expanding membership. I extend my deepest gratitude for your continued prayers, support and generosity, and I pray for the Lord’s abundant blessing upon you, your loved ones and all of the St. Francis family. ​ Gratefully, ​ Fr. Rudy Garcia Pastor View the 'I am with You Always' Campaign Video A GROWING COMMUNITY In the summer of 1966, twelve families stepped out in faith to establish a mission parish in the small farming town of Frisco. God has blessed and transformed our once-tiny parish from those humble beginnings into one of the largest in the Diocese of Dallas and the country. Today, St. Francis of Assisi is home to over 9,000 active parish families and nearly 24,000 active individuals. Throughout our history, parishioners have stepped forward to guarantee that our church could meet the needs of our growing Catholic community. With their leadership, sacrifice, commitment and generosity, we were able to construct our original parish center in 2001, followed by our beautiful church and chapel in 2013. Today, we stand at another pivotal moment in our history. We have been blessed by growth, but also challenged by it. We simply don’t have enough space to accommodate our many ministries and activities, housing for our priests, and adequate room for our children, youth and young adults. We find ourselves in a similar situation to those original twelve families who formed our parish. Collectively, we must step forward in faith to ensure that St. Francis can provide adequate space and resources for prayer, formation, discipleship and outreach. To that end, parish leaders have been diligently working on a long-range plan to accommodate these needs through new facilities on our campus. During this period of discernment and planning, we have sought the guidance of the Holy Spirit and listened intently to feedback and ideas from across the parish, most notably through our planning study last fall where we solicited feedback from every family and received feedback from thousands of parishioners to help determine the most important aspects of the plan for our future. In these pages, you will find the details of that plan, and an overview of what we hope will be the fruit of our labor and the blessing of the Holy Spirit. ​ In Matthew 28:20, part of our parish mission statement, the Lord promises his disciples that “He will be with them always, even until the end of the age.” As disciples of Christ today, we know these words grant us the same assurance that He is ever-present in our lives. Through the I Am with You Always Capital Campaign, St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church will be able to share this pledge with future generations of disciples, providing reverent worship, meaningful discipleship, engaging formation, strong education and outreach to those throughout the community who have yet to know the blessed assurance of God’s love. “St. Francis is our spiritual home where we have grown in our faith, deepened our love for Jesus and made many friends in this faith community. The parish is very welcoming, with a number of ministries that allow us to put our faith into action through service to the parish and community. The formation programs are outstanding, challenging each to become lifelong disciples of Christ. Most importantly, we appreciate the reverent celebration of Holy Mass and deep love of the Eucharist. We are excited and looking forward to building new meeting and sacred spaces. The developments are crucial for St. Francis to remain a fountain of spiritual growth and nourishment for generations to come and allow us to continue to welcome those who seek Christ and want to grow in their faith.” - Loren and Christie Lacy Campaign General Chairs “Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received – only what you have given.” – St. Francis of Assisi Under the leadership and direction of Bishop Edward J. Burns, the Diocese of Dallas is looking with great hope to the future. We recognize that Collin County is one of the top three fastest-growing counties in the United States. With this growth, the Diocese has the responsibility of ensuring access to quality education that represents our Catholic identity and values. The Catholic community in Collin County has long called for a Catholic school in our area, a school close to home where our children and future generations can grow and develop academically, spiritually, reflect the values of our faith and find a strong Catholic identity. In 2019, the Diocese answered that call with the purchase of 26 acres of land and a vision of a regional school to benefit the families of St. Francis of Assisi and our neighboring parishes in northern Collin County. Recent survey responses overwhelmingly called for moving forward quickly with executing this vision. ​ The planned Mother Teresa Catholic School in Frisco at the corner of Independence and Main is a unique and exciting opportunity to open a new Catholic school and provide access to Catholic education for families in Collin County. St. Francis of Assisi, as the largest parish in the area, will lead the charge in support for the school through an initial fundraising effort as part of the I Am with You Always Capital Campaign, accompanied by a Diocesan capital campaign for all parishes in northern Collin County and the Diocese of Dallas. Together, we will create a strong foundation for future generations at St. Francis of Assisi and beyond in Collin County and throughout the Diocese of Dallas. A CALL FOR CATHOLIC EDUCATION LEARN MORE ABOUT ST. MOTHER TERESA CATHOLIC SCHOOL Learn More The I Am with You Always campaign will focus on four projects to provide needed space to accommodate growth, support our Catholic community and fulfill our mission: OUR PLAN 1. FAMILY LIFE CENTER | $35 MILLION Outdoor Gathering Area At least 20 total new meeting rooms to be used for faith formation (K-5, middle school, high school, Confirmation), Bible studies, young adults, OCIA (formally RCIA), ministry meetings, youth programs and more A new 800-seat auditorium to provide additional space to host Masses each Sunday and Holy Days such as Christmas, Easter, and Ash Wednesday, speaking events, youth programs and overflow A new formal banquet hall that will seat 500 dinner-style or 800 theater-style Communal gathering spaces to allow parishioners to gather before and after Mass and other activities and meeting spaces to grow relationships and fellowship A second-floor youth space for gathering, education, Bible study and meetings, including: 10 meeting rooms prioritized for youth and faith formation A dedicated youth area for gathering, music, fellowship and outreach A new adoration chapel to seat 126 for perpetual adoration worship, as well as six new dedicated confessionals. Adoration Chapel 2. NEW RECTORY | $2.5 MILLION Six living suites – each with a bedroom, bathroom and study – to accommodate our priests, visiting priests and seminarians Shared spaces including a private chapel for Mass, an updated kitchen, a formal dining area and comfortable living area Demolition of the existing rectory to make way for 96 new parking spaces close to the church A new building located on the western side of our campus 3. PARISH CENTER RENOVATIONS | $2.5 MILLION Reconfiguration of space to improve safety, security and navigation, as well as to make best use of available space Expansion and relocation of parish offices to the west wing of the Parish Center to provide workspace and storage for existing and planned staff Relocation of Kids Day Out to the east wing of the Parish Center to provide better space configuration, security and traffic flow, as well as provide improved nursery experience for Mass Renovations to the Great Hall to improve aesthetics, usability, and technology Floor One Floor Two OUR PLAN Enrique and Elizabeth Arochi Campaign General Chairs 4. FUNDING FOR MOTHER TERESA CATHOLIC SCHOOL – 10% OF FUNDS RAISED A new Pre-K-8th Catholic school located at the northwest corner of Independence and Main in Frisco Will provide St. Francis families with an affordable, faith-based, Catholic school option in a location that is accessible to most parishioners Bishop Burns has asked St. Francis to lead the charge in fundraising, providing a positive example for other parishes in the area that will be asked to do the same in the near future As St. Francis embarks on this important fundraising effort, your support matters now more than ever. Your generosity will help us determine how much of our plan we will be able to complete immediately and how many of these needed changes will have to be deferred until a later time. Our architect and general contractor have provided construction tiers that allow for flexibility in funding and work to meet the most urgent needs of the parish. WHY YOUR GIFT MATTERS NOW To ensure that the foundation is laid to meet our most urgent needs, funding at this level will allow for: ​ Partial completion of the Family Life Center with the auditorium and first-floor meeting rooms completed, but the banquet hall, second-floor meeting rooms, youth space and adoration chapel constructed, but not completed Completion of a new rectory to house all our priests, visiting priests and seminarians comfortably, and demolition of existing rectory to increase parking near the church Funding of our obligation to Mother Teresa Catholic School At this level, St. Francis of Assisi will be able to celebrate the completion of several much-needed projects, including: Partial completion of the Family Life Center, with the auditorium, all meeting rooms and youth space completed, and the banquet hall and adoration chapel constructed, but not completed Completion of a new rectory to house all our priests, visiting priests and seminarians comfortably, and demolition of existing rectory to increase parking near the church Partial renovation of the Parish Center to improve meeting spaces and parish offices Funding of our obligation to Mother Teresa Catholic School Reaching this goal will allow St. Francis of Assisi to realize the full vision of the first phase of our long-range plan, including: ​ Complete buildout and furnishings for the Family Life Center, encompassing the new banquet hall, auditorium, all meeting rooms, kitchen, dedicated youth area and adoration chapel Completion of a new rectory to house all of our priests, visiting priests and seminarians comfortably, and demolition of existing rectory to increase parking near the church Renovation of the Parish Center to improve meeting spaces, the parish offices and Kids Day Out Funding of our obligation to Mother Teresa Catholic School FINANCIAL GOALS WHO WE SERVE WHO WE SERVE FUNDING THESE PLANS These plans for our campus are ambitious and do not come at low costs. However, these are the facilities that our parish will require to meet the needs of our parish community. Parish leaders hope to raise the bulk of the funds required for construction through the I Am with You Always Capital Campaign. By raising these funds now, the parish can avoid increased debt and be able to direct more funding to ministries and parish programs. If St. Francis is not able to raise all the needed funds, parish leadership is exploring alternative financing options, including construction loans, construction bonds, and the potential long-term lease of excess parish land. WAYS TO GIVE There are many options to help meet your needs while supporting St. Francis in a meaningful way. Selecting the best gift plan depends on your personal financial situation and goals. You may want to consider stretching pledges over a three-year period to maximize the total amount of support. This commitment can be fulfilled through monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual installments. Pledges are commitments made in good faith. Because tax laws change and each situation is unique, donors are encouraged to consult with their financial advisor to determine which method of contributing is most beneficial. We encourage all donors to consider a 10-20% initial payment to begin your commitment to ensure we will have the required cash on hand to begin construction in 2025. Cash or Check Gifts made by cash or check are the most common and will allow St. Francis to address its immediate needs. Checks should be made payable to St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church and include I Am with You Always in the memo line.
