In order to try and minister to as many people as possible, Pax Christi offers three options to participate in Mass:
Sunday 7:30 am - Watch Mass from your home on our Pax Christi YouTube channel. .
Daily Mass
All Masses are livestreamed EXCEPT
Wednesday 5:30 pm
Watch the Sunday 7:30 am livestream Mass on your own device in the Pax Christi parking lot. Immediately after Mass, enter church through the double glass doors and receive Communion. Parishioners may attend each week. You do not need a reservation.
Parishioners may register and attend Mass Saturday 5:15 pm or Sunday 7:30 am, 9:00 am, or 10:45 am. Seating is limited; parishioners must register in advance. An email registration is sent weekly to parishioners. If you are not receiving the email, check your spam folder, sign up to receive emails or call the office if you don’t have email or access to internet. 507-282-8542.
Many who volunteered for us pre-Covid are in the age group that is most vulnerable.
If you are able, please
consider helping in these areas:
From Bishop John Quinn:
“The obligation to attend Sunday Mass remains dispensed until further notice.
We care deeply for our parishioners, and cannot offer a 100% safe option to attend Mass. Persons over 65 or with preexisting conditions are strongly encouraged to not attend a public celebration of the Mass."
All Covid-19 positive persons, those who are symptomatic, and those living with them must stay home.
Prior to Mass
During Mass
Communion
After Mass
Prayer when you cannot be at church to receive the Eucharist.
My Jesus,
I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
The Church is open for personal prayer Monday - Friday 8:30 am - 4:30 pm
Livestream Mass Sunday at 7:30 amWe are working toward meeting in-person again as soon as it is safe.
Bishop Quinn, "Due to the pandemic, the obligation to attend Sunday Mass remains dispensed until further notice."
