“You can’t commit yourself to Christ without committing to people, because that’s where Christ is.”
– Father Clement Davenport

The Church of the Nativity, known as the jewel of the Archdiocese of San Francisco, is renowned for its beautiful ambiance and beckoning gardens. Open around the clock, it welcomes individuals from the greater Menlo Park, California area to visit Christ in the Blessed Sacrament at any hour. Within this gem lies a faith community built on the strength of 140 years of commitment to Christ and each other. “The parish comes together to support each other just like a family would. Generations pass and there are different people still doing the same thing. That’s the Nativity way. What strikes me the most about Nativity is that you can feel God is there.” – Russ Castle
