Open House for Our SEAS Preschool Faith Formation Program on Sunday, May 22!
Come and see what our SEAS Preschool Faith Formation program is all about! We will give a demonstration during two upcoming open house sessions on Sunday, May 22, so please bring your little ones!

Preschool Faith Formation takes place in the Atrium, a quiet place of prayer and contemplation. We use a child-centered method of formation which involves hands-on activity and work to discover the mystery of God.

Everything we do and learn in the Atrium points to Jesus, prayer and the Liturgy. Sessions begin in the fall. Contact Jill Skaife with questions at 651-437-4254 x225 or email jskaife@seasparish.org. We hope to see you on May 22 at 9 a.m. or 11 a.m.
NEW Moms and More Group
It's OK if you missed the first meeting (or two!) because there's still time and room to join. Email Katrina or Anna with questions and we hope to see you next Monday at 7 p.m. in the St. Clare room! Learn more about the group HERE.
'Tis the Season!
Beginning the week of May 9, road work will take place on 15th Street between General Sieben Drive and the dirt road just past the new rectory. This will affect both SEAS parking lot entrances on 15th Street. The church entrance off General Sieben Drive will not be affected. Please be mindful of the construction workers and exercise caution by driving slowly. The project should be substantially complete by mid-June.
