Welcome to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church! From our humble beginnings in 1976, St. Elizabeth has “burst into life” (in the words of Msgr. George Cummings, our first pastor). Far from the hectic rush of large cities, free from traffic jams, this parish has enjoyed a quiet and peaceful way of life, now sought after by many who are moving to Florida.
It is our hope and prayer that the foundation laid by the love and dedication and hard work by so many continues to be the model for so many new parishioners now moving into Citrus Springs, and will continue to shine for all of those who follow after us.
