It was announced at Masses this weekend that Fr. Lange will be leaving his position as Parochial Vicar of our Mission Field as of June 1, and is being reassigned to a position at the Cathedral. This change is entirely voluntary and will allow Fr. Lange to address personal matters with scaled back pastoral responsibilities.
Our Mission Field will be welcoming Fr. Matthew Miller as Parochial Vicar of the priest team as of August 1. As a result of this change, the original, intended Daily Mass schedule for our Mission Field will not be able to be implemented until after Labor Day. We thank you for your patience during this transition.
For the foreseeable future:

St. Emily's will be having Daily Mass on Wednesdays at 8:30 am, Rosary at 8:00 am, Adoration from 9:00 am-noon.

If you need to go to confession; times in our Mission Field for now will be:

Tuesdays, Immaculate Heart in Crosslake: 4:30 pm
Wednesdays, St. Alice, Pequot: 4:00 pm
Thursdays, Our Lady of Lourdes, Pine River: 8:00 am-8:20 am
Saturdays, St. Christopher, Nisswa: 11:00 am
Immaculate Heart, Crosslake: 3:00 pm
St. Alice, Pequot: 3:30 pm

There will be some bigger changes to our Daily Mass schedule, beginning *June 1* These changes are being implemented for a few reasons.
1. So that, if necessary, one priest can handle a 5 church schedule by himself and none of the Masses need to be canceled
2. To facilitate adding more confession time/s
3. To accommodate bible studies, and/or any seasonal (or regular) formation courses throughout the year. Variable Mass times make holding some of these things more do-able, especially in a short-term (such as a Lenten or Advent course).

New Daily Mass times in our cluster, beginning June 1, will be:

-Tuesdays, at Immaculate Heart: 4:30 pm, Confession; 5:00 pm, Rosary; 5:30 pm, Daily Mass

-Wednesdays, at St. Emily's: 8:00 am, Rosary; 8:30 am, Daily Mass; 9:00 am-noon, Adoration

-Thursdays, at ST. EMILY'S: 11:15 am Confession; 11:30 am, Rosary; 12:00 pm (noon), Daily Mass

-Fridays, at IMMACULATE HEART: 8:00 am, Rosary; 8:30 am, Daily Mass

-Tuesdays, at St. Christopher: 8:30 am, Daily Mass

This Sunday, April 26

The purpose of World Day of Prayer for Vocations is to publicly fulfill the Lord's instruction to, "Pray the Lord of the harvest to send laborers into his harvest" (Mt 9:38; Lk 10:2). As a climax to a prayer that is continually offered throughout the Church, it affirms the primacy of faith and grace in all that concerns vocations to the priesthood and to the consecrated life. While appreciating all vocations, the Church concentrates its attention this day on vocations to the ordained ministries (priesthood and diaconate), consecrated life in all its forms (male and female religious life, societies of apostolic life, consecrated virginity, secular institutes), and to the missionary life.

2026 marks the 63rd Anniversary of the World Day of Prayer for Vocations

(from the USCCB: https://www.usccb.org/committees/clergy-consecrated-life-vocations/world-day-prayer-vocations)

Duluth Diocesan Prayer for Vocations (Archbishop Dennis M. Schnurr):

"Almighty Father, we beg You for an increase in religious vocations and holy marriages in our Diocese. Help us to be generous in our response to Your call. Choose from our homes those who are needed for Your work and strengthen us with the courage to say "yes" and to follow You. Help us as a Diocese, as a parish, as families, to encourage and foster vocations to the priesthood, permanent diaconate and consecrated life. We commend our prayers to Patroness Mary, Queen of the Rosary and ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
