On account of social distancing during the pandemic, we are holding a virtual parish mission in place of the live mission we'd planned. Our presenter is Fr Mike Schmitz, courtesy of a mission he led at St Anthony of Padua Parish in Texas. Fr Mike is a priest of the Diocese of Duluth MN. He's an author and vibrant speaker who's popular as a mission presenter all over the country and as a speaker at Catholic conferences. Read more about him, in his own words, here.

Join other parishioners in our virtual parish mission by going to our Mini-Retreat page at 6:30 each evening to select the evening's video. Set up your computer or smart phone where you and other family members will be comfortable; put your feet up if you like. Start the video and enlarge to full screen. Relax while you listen; Fr Mike is sure to keep you from dozing off.

If you've signed up for a Skype conversation to follow the evening's presentation, have Skype ready, and answer when a facilitator invites you into the group. The sign-up form is on the Mini-Retreat page. Conversations will last about 30 minutes, or longer for those who wish to continue.
