COMMUNITY LIFE

This is a Catholic, family, fraternal service organization. However, it is not an organization of the church. The Fr. Francis Friend Council #8295 serves the people of Anderson County. The council provides a variety of opportunities for fraternal and family-centered activities.

We gather on the first Saturday of each month at 10:00 a.m. in the St Mary of the Angels Parish Hall, located at 1821 White St, Anderson, SC 29624.
