🎉 Let’s kick off the school year together! 🎉
What better way to wrap up the first week of school than with friends, faith, food, and FUN?! 🙌

We’ll spend the evening playing Nine Square in the Air, sharing a meal, celebrating Mass together, and then gathering around the campfire for praise & worship. 🔥🎶✝️

Come hang out, meet some new friends, laugh a lot, and most importantly, take some time to thank God for a new school year and invite Him into all that’s ahead! ❤️

❤️🙏 **Everyone is Welcome!** 🙏❤️

We welcome anyone who would like to grow closer to Jesus and learn more about the Catholic Church! Whether you’re new to the faith, looking to deepen your relationship with Christ, or seeking to grow in your understanding and practice of the Catholic faith, there is a place for you here.

We are SO excited for another year of Family Faith Formation! We meet twice a month and begin each evening with dinner together, followed by an hour of faith formation for both the kids and adults.

Our hope is to grow stronger in our faith, deepen our relationship with Jesus, and learn how to live out our Catholic faith in our everyday lives. Together, we’ll learn, pray, grow, and encourage one another as we strive to keep Christ at the center of our families.

Our adult faith formation is open to everyone! You do not need to have a student in the program to join us for the adult session. This is an opportunity for any adult who desires to grow deeper in their faith, learn more about the Catholic Church, and strengthen their relationship with Jesus.❤️

✨ Ready to join us? Please register your family using the link below so we can make sure we have all the materials needed for everyone. https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/U4eVbVRMwm

We can’t wait to welcome you and begin another wonderful year of growing closer to Christ together! 🙏❤️

Another amazing night with these kids! ❤️ So grateful for the opportunity for teens from across the Diocese to meet up, build friendships, and grow in their faith together. Mass, games, delicious food, and plenty of laughter! Let’s be real—being a teenager isn’t always easy. What a blessing it is to have a village walking alongside you, friendships that hold you up in the hard moments, and people who cheer you on through it all. Another great talk from Father Mike, challenging us to keep growing in our faith and putting it into action! 🙏

We had the opportunity to cheer on our students as they ran the Bay to Bay race! For those who aren't familiar, it's a race on the Superior Hiking Trail from Silver Bay to Beaver Bay.

To finish this race, you have to keep your eyes fixed on the trail, persevere through the difficult miles, and stay focused on the finish line.

As I watched these students, I couldn't help but think about their faith. They don't just show perseverance and endurance on race day—they live it every day. They keep their eyes fixed on Jesus, faithfully pointing others to Him through the way they live.

We are so proud of each of these students and the example they set. Congratulations on an incredible accomplishment!

Another incredible night—praise God for these amazing kids! We were blessed with the opportunity to join more than 100 youth from across the Diocese in Hibbing for Teen Discipleship Night. It was a wonderful evening of faith, building friendships, and growing together in Christ.

They're already looking forward to our next Teen Discipleship Night on Thursday, August 13! We can't wait to see what God has in store.

What a blessing! After Mass today, we held a cinnamon roll fundraiser to help send some of our kids to Camp Survive. We are deeply grateful to our parish family and to all the visitors who joined us today for your generosity, encouragement, and prayers.

It is always wonderful to see our parish gather together in fellowship as we support our youth. Thank you to everyone who purchased cinnamon rolls and helped make this fundraiser a success. Your kindness is a beautiful reminder of the love, generosity, and faith that make our parish community so special.

Please keep our campers and leaders in your prayers as they prepare for an amazing week at Camp Survive. May God bless you abundantly!
