THE NATIONAL SHRINE OF SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI, located in San Francisco’s historic North Beach district, bears witness to Christ at the heart of the beautiful city named for the Poverello of Assisi.
 

At the National Shrine of Saint Francis of Assisi, we seek:

to offer spiritual nourishment,reconciliation and an encounter with God’s love to all people who enter our sanctuary of quiet and prayer;

to provide a rich experience of the sacramental life of the Church for the faithful who come seeking grace;

to reach out to communities of faith and social organizations throughout the nation by bringing them the insights of the Catholic Faith and Franciscan spirituality.
