Welcome to St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, where faith, community, and society converge under the umbrella of Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani. We are dedicated to upholding and promoting our beliefs, values, and traditions. In alignment with our mission, we strongly support the 'no on AB 2223' campaign and invite you to learn more about its significance.

What is AB 2223?

AB 2223 is a proposed bill that seeks to impose restrictions on religious organizations, including churches, in California. If passed, this bill would infringe upon our religious freedoms, autonomy, and ability to carry out our essential functions. It is crucial for our community to understand the potential implications and consequences of this legislation.

Why St. Francis of Assisi Supports 'no on AB 2223'

St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, as a representative of Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani, opposes AB 2223 for several important reasons, including:

1. Preserving Religious Freedom

Religious freedom is the cornerstone of our society, allowing individuals and organizations to practice their faith without undue interference. We firmly believe that any legislation threatening this fundamental right hinders the spiritual growth and expression of individuals within our parish and community.

2. Protecting Autonomy

As a church, we cherish our autonomy to carry out our mission, spread our values, and serve our community without unnecessary government interference. AB 2223 directly undermines this autonomy, potentially limiting our ability to fulfill our duty to our congregation and the wider society.

3. Safeguarding Our Values

Our core values, deeply rooted in our faith, shape the way we interact with our community and contribute to societal well-being. We are committed to preserving these values and ensuring that they continue to positively impact the lives of our members and the surrounding society.

4. Upholding Community Impact

St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church and Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani have a longstanding history of actively engaging with the community and addressing various societal issues. We believe that AB 2223 would hinder our ability to continue making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve, exacerbating the challenges faced by many.

Join Our Community and Society of Faith and Beliefs

By standing together and opposing AB 2223, we can protect our religious freedoms, preserve our autonomy, and safeguard our values. Join our community of faith and beliefs, and together, we can make a substantial impact on the future of religious liberty in California.
