Every summer, Saint Olaf parishioners form a festival choir to perform the National Anthem at a Minnesota Twins game. This year, Saint Olaf sang the anthem at the Monday night game versus the Seattle Mariners on July 24, 2023. Scroll on to see photos of the night, as well as video of the anthem performance. We already can't wait for next year!

Saint Olaf's Synod Evangelization Team invites you to Small Group Facilitator Training

Saint Olaf’s Synod Evangelization Team members are moving on to developing the Small Groups we will offer at Saint Olaf early in 2024.
If YOU are interested in serving as a leader/facilitator for a Small Group, contact Michael Griffin, MGriffin@SaintOlaf.org.

Archbishop Hebda is asking each parish to begin or rejuvenate a small group ministry.
Small groups are an important way to help ourselves, our family, and our friends to know, love and follow
Jesus more closely and to live more joyful. If you feel inspired by this or any other aspect of the Archdiocesan Synod
process, consider the following action steps:
· (Re)read the Pastoral Letter, “You Will Be My Witnesses,” www.archspm.org/synodletter (also available via podcast).
· Prayerfully discern participating in Small Group Leader Formation,
a FREE seven-week series held at Saint Olaf
Tuesdays beginning October 3, from 6:30pm - 8:30pm
Saturdays, beginning October 7, from 8:30am - 10:30am

Jesus desires to heal, renew, and unify the Church and the world. How will he do it? By uniting us once again around the source and summit of our faith - the Holy Eucharist. The National Eucharistic Revival is the joyful, expectant, grassroots response of the entire Catholic Church in the U.S. to this divine invitation.

  -from the National Eucharistic Revival

If you're looking for guidance on how you can recenter your faith life around the Holy Eucharist, then look no further. Keep scrolling through this page for resources to learn more why there is a revival - and the importance of this revival - and consider visiting Saint Olaf to participate in the Holy Sacraments. Here at Saint Olaf Catholic Church, we offer Eucharistic Adoration every Friday, from 11:00am - 12:00Noon. We offer 17 Masses each week, and that schedule can be found by clicking HERE.
