Welcome to St. Emydius Church
We are your Catholic community home located in the Ingleside district of San Francisco, a rich multicultural community with many different ethnic and national cultures mingling freely. As some say: St. Emydius is the best kept secret in San Francisco.
At the heart of the church lies the community celebration of the Eucharist which gives us all of these blessings. As part of your spiritual life, join us as we welcome everyone. The troubled
time of COVID is about over and this should bring you consolation, strength, perspective, and sense of mission. At the
heart of the church lies this community celebration of the Eucharist
which gives us all of these blessings.

In year 2022, we started a new stage in the Catholic Church thanks to a call from Pope Francis. Yes, the Holy Father has convened a Synod and has asked every Catholic to participate in the process! This happened in the first part of the year for all parishes around the world. We hope to witness in the next years necessary changes in the Catholic Church for the many future generations.
