Small Group for Husbands and Fathers

Do you ever wonder if you have what it takes to lead in your family? We are looking for men who are hungry to learn more about their faith and how to pass that onto their children.

The most important factor in a child’s faith decisions is the faith of their parents! Becoming Provider is more than putting food on the table!

This Small Group will meet for eight on Tuesday evenings at 7:30-9:00 PM, February 11 thruough May 13.

Cost is $85. Register at Cana Family Institute or email Kory LaCroix for more information.

Young Professionals Monthly Holy Hour

First Thursday of Every Month

Next Holy Hour: Thursday, February 6
Time:
7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Location: Our Lady of Grace, Edina

Young professionals (ages 21 - 35) gather for an hour of Adoration, Confessions, and song. A light social in the Commons follows.

"Attending ‘Holy Hour at OLG’ was a breath of fresh air! Dozens of candles lit up the Church and surrounded the monstrance as we gathered together. For an hour we lifted up our voices in song and our hearts in prayer. I felt at home with this group of young professionals praising and worshipping our Lord. Fr. Kevin graciously made himself available for confessions, staying until the last person was finished. After our time of prayer, song, and meditation, we were invited to the Commons for a social. Beer, Wine, Seltzers, and snacks were available while we were able to connect with friends and other young professionals." ~ Elizabeth Felsheim, OLG Young Professional/Parishioner

Into the Depths Speaker Series with Dr. William Stevenson

Date: Tuesday, February 4, 6:30 - 8:00 PM, Dining Room
Speaker: Dr. William Stevenson
Title:  Jesus’s Atoning Death and the Meaning of the Mass

What does Jesus actually accomplish on the Cross?  How does His death have the power to save me from my sins?  We will address these and other questions, as well as show how a deeper understanding of the Atonement can transform our understanding of the Mass and better dispose us to receive the graces that Jesus offers us there.

Dr. William Stevenson is the Associate Academic Dean and Associate Professor of Dogmatic Theology at the Saint Paul Seminary.  He has also taught courses in the Department of Catholic Studies and is a frequent lecturer for the Catechetical Institute.  In addition, he is a member of the USCCB’s National Evangelical-Catholic Ecumenical Dialogue.

Teaching Mass: Walk through the Mass Step-By-Step with Father Kevin

Monday, February 3, 6:15 - 7:45 PM in the Church and Commons

The Walk through the Mass Step-By-Step with Fr. Kevin and Fr. Nick is a great place to learn more about the why behind what we do!

Come and discover the deeper meaning of the items we use and the gestures we do! 

Have you ever wondered why we cross our forehead, lips, and chest at the Gospel?  Have you ever wondered what Father says to himself sometimes during the Mass?   Have you ever wondered when exactly does Jesus become present on the altar?

Join us for A Walk through the Mass Step-by-Step with Father Kevin and Father Nick. You’ll receive a worship aide with additional fun facts, scripture references, and deeper insights into the prayers. The Teaching Mass will be a great way to kick off this year’s theme, Remain in Me and Bear Much Fruit. By learning about what we do at Mass and why we do it, we will come to a greater understanding of this great prayer the Lord has given us. What we come to know, we are more likely to love, and what we love, we desire to share.

If you have questions, please contact Jessica. Childcare is available.
