Welcome to St. Francis of Assisi Parish, Fr. Martin Estrada!
Father Martin Estrada is a native of San Julian, Jalisco, Mexico. He is the son of Jose Guadalupe Estrada and Maria del Socorro Vasquez, and he is the youngest of 10 children. He was ordained on May 25, 2019 at St. Philip Parish in Posey County (due to renovations at St. Benedict Cathedral in 2019). He began his priestly service shortly after at Holy Rosary Parish in Evansville, and he has been there ever since. On June 27, 2026, Fr. Martin will begin as priest of St. Francis of Assisi Parish. We look forward to growing together in faith, serving our local community, and continuing the mission of Christ under his spiritual leadership. Welcome, Fr. Martin Estrada!
