A Local Event That's Perfect for Ages 4-84!
Looking for a local event this weekend? Come on out to Jaycee Park for the 1st annual Hastings Pumpers on the Mississippi event. Due to COVID we ask people to either do a drive by or look at the fire trucks from afar. Please do not park in the boat launch parking lot if you do not have a boat. Click here for more information.
46 children will receive the Body of Christ for the first time this weekend. Click the picture below to find out who will receive Jesus' love in a whole new way!
SEAS School Reopening Plan
Our plan was created with input from the Archdiocese, staff, SAC, and other parents in our community. We used information from the Minnesota Department of Health, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the Minnesota Department of Education. We also used articles on reopening guidelines that contained scientific research based on best practices.
Above is a typical room arrangement for our new children’s program. Do you have children’s tables and chairs, coffee tables or small shelving units at home you no longer need?
We are also looking for other household and children’s items for donation. Click here for a list of items to help this program get off to a great start this fall. Thank you for your assistance!
Please remember those who are most in need of prayer, including all who are in our prayer corner. Names are updated weekly. To add a new name, contact the office at 651-437-4254. To renew a loved one's name, call by the last Monday of each month.Click here to go to the prayer corner.
