We are looking for volunteers to pray a rosary before the Blessed Sacrament for the repose of the souls of our faithfully, and for the comfort and healing of their families.

The Twin Cities Marathon may affect your route to church this weekend, as parts of Summit Avenue will be closed Saturday and Sunday.

Now is the perfect time, as we have several rehearsals before we begin singing at the 11:00 AM Mass. No experience (or auditions) necessary!

We are expanding our Donut Sunday weekends to be our official Welcome Weekends, and we want all parishioners to make time to stay after Mass to meet new parishioners, and become better acquainted with everybody else.

The stained glass has all been re-installed and is looking great! All that remains to be done is to remove the lift from the church and reinstall the pews. If all goes well, the church should be back to normal by Wednesday. Thank you for your continued patience!

The solemn feast of the Nativity of Our Lord is upon us, my very first as pastor of Nativity of Our Lord. As our Advent longing turns to Christmas joy, may God bless you and your families ever more abundantly.

Children's Liturgy has been suspended for the summer. See you in the fall!

As always, any baptized Catholic who is seriously ill is encouraged to contact us to receive this sacrament as soon as possible, and if anticipating major surgery to make an appointment prior.

Steiner Hall is now outfitted for livestream capabilities, so once again all morning Masses (plus 5pm Saturday) are livestreamed on our website.

Do you want to make a positive difference in the faith formation of our K-2 children? Please consider joining a team of adults who offer the Children’s Liturgy of the Word during the 9:00 AM Sunday Mass.

Fr. Patrick gives thanks for a year full of blessings, reflects on the 2nd Sunday of Advent, and invites parishioners to pledge their support for the new year.

Each year, the Catholic Church in the United States designates this third Sunday in September as Catechetical Sunday. It is a day to celebrate and pray for the Church’s mission to teach the Gospel to all people. 

We currently need new volunteers for the following rosters, for both weekday and Lord’s Day Masses: Greeters, Eucharistic Ministers, Lectors, Ushers. Can you help?

Eucharistic Ministers are no longer required to wear masks when distributing Communion. The priest celebrant will continue to wear a mask during Communion.

Lent is perhaps our greatest annual opportunity to make a concerted effort to turn back to the Lord. Whether we are walking closely with him or have strayed far away, all of us are invited to turn again from our sins and earthly attachments and seek him ever more fervently.

Deacon Don Tienter will preach all Masses this weekend to share the work of our society, and there will be a second collection at each. Please be generous so we can continue our help to the poor in 2022.

Sunday at the 11:00 AM Mass we celebrate the Rites of Acceptance and Welcoming for our RCIA Catechumens and Candidates, an essential step along the way towards full initiation into our Catholic Church.

Last week we sent home a letter to each of our registered parishioner households explaining our new Sunday Mass schedule. If you haven't received one yet, please let us know!

In order to accommodate increasing congregational sizes, we are adding an additional weekly Sunday morning Mass at 7:30am, and moving our current weekly 8:15am Sunday Mass to 9am.

We are excited to announce that our three-day Nativity County Fair event is coming back in 2021, including outdoor Mass and open fair time on Sunday, 9/19.
