For Catholics, the Sacrament of Baptism is the first step in a lifelong journey of commitment and discipleship. Parents attend two Baptism Preparation sessions in order to enter into a deeper relationship with God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Godparents and Christian witnesses are welcome to attend as well. This experience serves as an introduction to the parish, giving you time to meet fellow parishioners and to learn about opportunities to grow in your faith within the All Saints community.

Parents can choose to attend preparation sessions on Thursday evenings or Sunday mornings. For more information or questions regarding the course, call the parish office at 952.469.4481.

Baptism Preparation Sessions

Thursdays, August 14 & 21, 7-8:45pm

Sundays, September 7 & 21, 10:15-noon

Baptisms are celebrated on various Sundays each month. To register for your preparation sessions and baptismal day, start by clicking the button below and completing the inquiry form.

Preparation for these sacraments is typically for children in grades 2-3. All Saints prepares children for Reconciliation before their First Eucharist. The program includes three components: parent-led lessons, parent-and-child sessions, and activity days.

• Reconciliation preparation takes place starting in September, with the celebration in November.
• First Eucharist preparation takes place in the winter and early spring, with celebrations after Easter.

We welcome new registrations throughout the year! The 2025-2026 schedule will be coming soon. If you need more information, LEARN MORE below to reach out to us!

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is available in the confessional in St. Mary's Chapel. During Advent and Lent, a Day of Reconciliation is offered, and a number of priests are available to hear private confessions in the Church. You can also call the parish office at 952.469.4481 to schedule an appointment.

Weekend Reconciliation:

Saturdays 8:30-9:30am and 3:30-4:30pm

Sundays 4:30-5pm

In Christian marriage, we begin with God’s love for each of us and desire for our good! The inner life of God reflects to us a relationship and that we are made for deep unity and love. Thank you for responding to God’s call and invitation to holy matrimony and the joy and blessings it brings to the world!

All Saints invites couples who wish to marry at All Saints to embrace a life of faith and encourages couples to participate in parish life, particularly presence at Sunday Mass. We know each couple is different and we are excited you are choosing marriage!

There are three components to marriage preparation at All Saints: Mentoring/FOCCUS, Pre-Cana Retreat, and Wedding/Liturgy Planning. Contact the parish office at 952.469.4481 for an appointment with a priest before making plans for marriage preparation.

We are glad you are here and happy to help you take the next steps. Whether you are new to Catholicism or have been going all your life, welcome.

OCIA, Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (formerly called, RCIA), is for...

- those who are not yet baptized preparing to celebrate Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist,

- those baptized in another Christian denomination preparing to become Catholic, or

- those who were baptized Catholic preparing to celebrate their Confirmation, and perhaps their First Eucharist.

OCIC, Order of Christian Initiation of Children, is for families with older children who would like to prepare for the sacraments of initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist). This includes being a part of our parish Faith Formation program (grade-specific) and several additional sessions that align with our adult OCIA program. These sacraments are received during the Easter season.

The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is one of the Church's seven Sacraments. Any member of the Catholic faithful who is in danger of death, becomes seriously ill, is injured, or is suffering from a decline due to advanced age is encouraged to receive this Sacrament. One need not be at the point of death. The next Anointing Masses will be held on Saturday, October 25, at 11am

The sacrament can be repeated, even during the same illness. Requests for the sacrament can be made at any time. If you wish to be anointed or if you have questions, please call 952.469.4481.

In case of an emergency, please contact the parish as soon as possible. Outside of office hours, callers can access an after-hours operator who will contact one of the priests.

Holy Orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry. It includes three degrees: episcopate (bishop), presbyterate (priest), and diaconate (deacon).

Anyone considering the priesthood or diaconate is encouraged to contact Father Wilson, Father Joseph, Deacon Jim, or Deacon Allen.
