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 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.

As the pandemic subsides and restrictions have been lifted, the Minnesota bishops have reinstated the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation beginning the weekend of July 3-4, 2021.

Ready or not: it's coming! Sign up for daily prayer prompts and Gospel reflections and make this one the Best Lent Ever.

To help us maintain appropriate safety measures, we will require reservations for Christmas Mass attendance. Reservations will open on Monday, December 7 at 9:00 AM — first come, first served.

Our pastor, Fr. Patrick Hipwell, explains the difficult decision to suspend public Masses and Confessions and offers other updates on the parish's coronavirus response plan.

Following Archdiocesan directives, there will be no public Masses at Nativity after Wednesday, 3/18 for at least two weeks. We have also suspended Confessions.

Due to increased concerns about the spread of the Coronavirus, we will be indefinitely suspending the sign of peace at all Masses.

Does it get any better than a home-cooked feast with all our loved ones, toasting to another year of blessings, cozying up by the fire with hot cocoa? Well, yes it does, believe it or not.

Fr. Patrick Hipwell, Fr. Nick Hagen, and the parish staff would like to distribute a Christmas card at Christmas Mass this year, and we need your help!

Please join me in entering into this joyful, hopeful, and yes also penitential season of Advent here at Nativity of Our Lord! 

May your Lenten journey be blessed with healing and a deeper relationship with Christ.

Beginning Monday, June 25 and continuing through Friday, August 28, the upper church will be closed for maintenance. The church maintenance project will include pew restoration, hardwood floor stripping and staining, and lighting updates.
