St. Francis Parish Mission

by Fr. Clem OyafemiWednesday October 19, 2022

Topic: “You shall receive power …. and be my witnesses” Acts 1:8

Summary: How do you set the world on fire? What happens to the fire of the Holy Spirit in you? How do you witness in this busy world? The Mission preacher for this year’s parish mission is Fr. Clem Oyafemi, pastor of Holy Family parish, Jackson.

Fr. Clem is a charismatic preacher with a great sense of humor. He has published several books on theological reflections and written many liturgical songs. He has served the church in Nigeria (Africa), England, Mexico, and in the last twenty years in various parts of the United States. He will draw from sacred scriptures and his experience of serving in the “mission” for more than 28 years in multicultural settings in different parts of the world to encourage, remind, empower, and challenge us at St. Francis of Assisi. You are all invited to come and enjoy one hour in a sacred space! Dinner begins at 5:15 PM in family life center then we will all gather in the Church at 6:15 PM for our parish mission.
