A calling from the Archdiocesan Synod –
Archbishop Bernard Hebda’s dream of developing Small Groups in all parishes is being implemented currently at the Church of St. Patrick, Inver Grove Heights. Your prayers and support for this mission are needed for us to successfully build a strong foundation on which to develop, grow and lovingly welcome our brothers and sisters in Christ. The first step is to formation and discernment of leaders & support members who will launch Small Groups for Lent 2024.
