Brief
history and first Rector
St Francis form part
of the Mitchell plain archdeaconry and it is situated in
strandfontein on the corner of Samon and Couplejou road and serves
the Anglicans community
It started from a
garage by one of the parishes then later used the local school for
accommodation to a classroom due to the growth of the community a
few years later in 1980 a small building site was constructed for
the bigger growth of Anglicans which was used for 12 years till the
main building was completed in1992

a prayer
Lord
make me an instrument of your peace
Where
there is hatred, let me sow love
Where
there is injury pardon
Where
there doubt, faith
Where
there is darkness, light
And
where there is sadness, joy
O
divine master, grant that I may not so much seek
To
be consoled as to console
To
be understood as to understand
To
be loved as to love
For
it is giving that we receive
It
is in pardoning that we are pardoned
and
it is in dying that we are born to eteral life
