Bishop Francis Quinn

The name Quinn Cottages is in honors of spiritual leader and activist, Bishop Francis Quinn. Without the leadership and support from Bishop Quinn, as well as beloved former Mayor Joe Serna Jr. and Sister Libby Fernandez, Quinn Cottages would not exist.

During his 12 year tenure at the Sacramento Diocese, Quinn added seven new parishes, several missions, two elementary schools and one high school. He also oversaw a 10-year pastoral plan for the Diocese as well as a spiritual renewal program, reorganized the Deanery structure, initiated a Diocesan Pastoral Council and helped the Diocese celebrate its hundredth anniversary.
