Due to the unpredictability of the pandemic, Nativity has made the incredibly difficult decision to replace the traditional Nativity County Fair with a new virtual event for 2020.

Fr. Patrick Hipwell, Pastor of Nativity of Our Lord, addresses the parish on the tragic, unjust death of George Floyd

I am pleased to announce that we will return to limited public Mass here at Nativity of Our Lord beginning on Wednesday, June 3. Sign-ups open Monday at 9am.

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.

Please join me in congratulating native son Brother David Hottinger, P.E.S. on his ordination to the transitional diaconate on Saturday, May 23.

An Easter message from our pastor, Fr. Patrick Hipwell

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.

As a sign of unity, Archbishop Hebda asks that all of us — especially students — to pray the “Litany in Time of Need” each day at 11:00 AM for protection and help.

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.

Adoration has been moved to the main church and will be restricted to 9am-10pm Sunday-Friday and 9am-4pm on Saturday. 

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.

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.

I am asking all parishioners to make a financial commitment to support the work of the many ministries that are funded by the CSAF that no one parish can support on its own.

With input and ideas from more than 150 parishioners and staff, the One Nativity team has been working to clarify a practical three- to five-year vision and plan for living out our mission statement.

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!

Saint Paul will conduct a citywide residential plow on north-south residential streets Tuesday and east-west residential streets Wednesday. (This is NOT a Snow Emergency.)

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