A Message from the Pastor
Dear Parents,
On behalf of the staff and faculty at Saint Agnes School, I wish you a very blessed and happy Easter! May the risen Christ bestow upon you and your family His peace and love.
This Easter Octave is a great time to consider how we are cooperating with the Lord in the sanctification and salvation of souls. Our students worship God weekly at the Holy Mass in a beautiful and dignified manner. More than 350 students in grades 3-12 go to confession every month. Excellent attendance at our Lenten Lecture Series and numerous conversions resulting from Classes in the Catholic Faith show the value of our educational opportunities.
I invite your family to consider the ways you can deepen your sacramental life this season. Come appreciate the beautiful sacred music at the 10AM High Mass on Sunday. Join us for Tuesday evening devotions or Friday Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Put faith and love into action by sharing your talents with one of many apostolates or services at Saint Agnes Church and School. God is never outdone in generosity. When we are generous with God in our prayer and adoration, He showers us even more generously with His blessings.
May God bless you and keep you,
Fr. Mark Moriarty

Dear Parents,
I am writing to you to inform you of my decision to not return to Saint Agnes next year in order to stay home and care for our first child. My profound love for teaching and for Saint Agnes School made this a difficult and prayer-filled discernment. While I did not intend to serve as lower school director for only one year, I hope to live out God's Will in this call to motherhood. As Blessed Solanus Casey said, "Let us pray to be guided according to God's Holy Will at all times and in everything."
Although my time at Saint Agnes has been brief, it has been blessed and joyful. I am grateful for this community's welcoming embrace upon moving to Minnesota a few years ago and the chance to grow closer to our Lord by immersing myself in the school culture. I continue to ask God abundant blessing on the Saint Agnes community in this paramount task of bringing the light of Christ to students.
In Christ,
Emily Minton
