The priests and parish leadership of Nativity of Our Lord are currently in ongoing discussions on when and how to re-open our liturgies to public assembly as soon as is possible in a safe and healthy way.

Watching a video stream of Mass is new to most of us. We've compiled some helpful instructions and advice, including a video from Fr. Nick, and info-graphic from the Archdiocese, a free liturgy guide from Magnificat, and more.

The priests of Nativity sent a pastoral letter to all households to assure them of their prayers and support, update them on the state of operations, and inform them on how to stay connected and make the most of this time.

Our pastor, Fr. Patrick Hipwell, explains the difficult decision to suspend public Masses and Confessions and offers other updates on the parish's coronavirus response plan.

Following Archdiocesan directives, there will be no public Masses at Nativity after Wednesday, 3/18 for at least two weeks. We have also suspended Confessions.

In the interest of the safety of our penitents and priests alike, we have suspended Confessions, effective immediately.

The 8:15am daily Mass will be celebrated downstairs to Steiner Hall to accommodate the construction work in the main church sanctuary.

Due to increased concerns about the spread of the Coronavirus, we will be indefinitely suspending the sign of peace at all Masses.

Does it get any better than a home-cooked feast with all our loved ones, toasting to another year of blessings, cozying up by the fire with hot cocoa? Well, yes it does, believe it or not.

Fr. Patrick Hipwell, Fr. Nick Hagen, and the parish staff would like to distribute a Christmas card at Christmas Mass this year, and we need your help!

Please join me in entering into this joyful, hopeful, and yes also penitential season of Advent here at Nativity of Our Lord!

One Nativity 2035 is a collaboration of the clergy, parishioners, and staff of Nativity of Our Lord to identify and recommend ways to better communicate, bolster, and sustain our parish mission in service of this vibrant Catholic community — today and well into the future.

The Twin Cities Marathon may affect your route to church this weekend, as parts of Summit Avenue will be closed Saturday and Sunday, October 5-6.

We, the priests and principals of the Nativity community, want to look directly at some painful sores that cover the suffering members of the universal Church, choosing not to ignore them, but treat them in openness and shared purpose.
