Due to the coronavirus outbreak, the Archbishop has made the decision to suspend all regularly scheduled public celebrations of mass until further notice; thus all Marysburg & Nativity public masses and social events are being canceled until further notice.

From Archbishop Hebda:
“State Officials have communicated to religious leaders that the next two weeks are critical for the containment of the COVID-19/coronavirus and that all congregational gatherings should be avoided. While I am sure that the advice is startling for those of any creed, it particularly hits hard for Catholics, given our beliefs about the Mass and the Eucharist.
In light of that advice, after consulting with the Presbyteral Council and College of Consultors, and having learned that an active parish priest in another U.S. diocese has tested positive for the virus – unknowingly putting his parish at risk prior to the manifestation of any symptoms – I have made the difficult decision to suspend all regularly scheduled public celebrations of Mass in the Archdiocese of Saint Paul Minneapolis, effective immediately. Given both the moral impossibility of attending Mass, as well as the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass that was extended to the faithful of the Archdiocese last week, please rest assured that the missing of Mass in these conditions should not weigh on your conscience.”
PLEASE NOTE: ALL Marysburg and Nativity Masses and social events are canceled until further notice. Email the Parish Office with any questions - [email protected]
Thank you so much - God bless! #stayhome
