The Chapel of St. Maximilian Kolbe is a vibrant, affirming, and inclusive community of faith rooted in the Franciscan values of radical love and acceptance. Guided by the life and witness of our patron saint, who demonstrated boundless compassion and courage in the face of injustice, we strive to embody Christ's unconditional love in all we do.
Our ministry extends beyond traditional church walls, embracing a "feet-on-the-ground" approach that meets people where they are. Whether advocating for justice, supporting those in need, or walking alongside those on life’s margins, we are committed to being a living expression of God’s grace.
At the Chapel of St. Maximilian Kolbe, everyone is welcomed and celebrated. Regardless of your background, identity, or journey, you have a place in our community. Together, we work to build a world where love knows no bounds and hope is a shared gift.
Come as you are—find peace, purpose, and belonging. Join us as we continue the work of creating a more compassionate and inclusive world.
