The Church of St. Francis of Assisi has long dedicated itself to ongoing faith formation of Adults through our Adult Education ministry.
Our Fall 2024 courses are now listed online and are open for registration here.
Subjects range from theology, biblical studies, spirituality, church history, music, literature and poetry. Here are the titles of the courses for this upcoming semester:
-

While we try to keep our registration fees low (generally about $10 per hour of instruction) we also understand that for some this can be a burden. We do not want anyone who wants to attend a class to be prohibited by economic hardship. Please contact Fr. Brian Jordan, OFM, for information on scholarships: bjordan@stfrancisnyc.org
