The Fifth Sunday in Lent
March 22, 2026
Prayers of God’s People.
Lord, in your mercy . . . Hear our prayer. This coming week we lift up Steve & Judy Hill; Pat Campanaro & Stan Tull; Kim Shepard; Jessa, Eric & Owen Frost. May God walk with these faithful friends in these final days of Lent. One final prayer today ... for the Minnesota Wild community following the deaths of sports reporter Jessi Pierce and her three children in a house fire over the weekend.
Our March Mission of the Month will help Ascension Catholic Church in the northside neighborhood of Minneapolis respond to the needs of immigrant families by delivering food, helping with rent, and providing other assistance so that residents can remain in the security of their homes. Our gifts will help bring healing to a community traumatized by fear. Use the “GIVE” button above to donate.

We are a Reconciling in Christ congregation.
You are invited to participate in the life of the church regardless of your sexual orientation, gender expression, political leanings, religious affiliation, immigration status, or attitude toward lutefisk. We are a community of faith made up of imperfect people seeking the mystery of God’s love together; a church where beginners are welcome, forgiveness is proclaimed, inclusion in promised, and hope comes alive.
We are Partners in Ministry!

We acknowledge that we live and worship on the traditional lands of our indigenous neighbors. We honor that we are able to build a community that reflects the culture and values of our immigrant forebears because the Ojibwe Nation gave us permission to do so through a series of treaties.
