After many months of consistent updates from St Francis Today, we will be stepping away for a few weeks. Life calls elsewhere for a short while, and this means the SFT regular postings on the website and newsletter will be somewhat limited during this time. It’s just a short pause, however, a brief break, so please continue reading for more information.

Let’s be clear: We’re not switching off completely. While SFT may not be able to publish the usual (fairly) consistent flow of news, stories, and images, we will still be keeping an eye on things and quietly tracking what’s happening in and around St Francis Bay.

You’ll still find SFT on social media from time to time, chiming in with the odd post, a quick note, a tongue-in-cheek travel piece or a shared update. So if you have something important or interesting to share, feel free to tag or message us there. SFT may not always reply immediately, but we’ll be listening and monitoring, either on Facebook or Instagram, even though those two platforms give us the heebie-jeebies at times.

A short pause for breath

This is not a farewell, just a short pause for breath. SFT will be back soon, refreshed and ready, just in time for the rigours of full-blown EC winter, and with ice-cold focus and plenty to say. The heart of St Francis Today has always been about staying connected to our quirky little village and warmly eccentric community. That commitment doesn’t stop, even if we’re not physically in town for a little bit.

In the meantime, thank you for your continued support, for reading, sharing, and engaging with what we publish.
