Archdiocesan Passport Adventure: We are 175 years strong!

Catholics around the world are marking 2025 as a Year of Jubilee, while at the same time we as an Archdiocese celebrate 175 years since our founding on July 19, 1850.
Archbishop Hebda invites you to become an Archdiocesan Jubilee Pilgrim:
• Go to https://www.archspm.org/passport/ for more information and to download and print your passport.
• From now through Sunday, October 12, try to visit seven parishes other than your own, much as Saint Philip Neri led the faithful of his day to seven churchesin Rome. You could pray for one of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit at each church.
• Among the seven churches, try to visit our two Jubilee co-cathedral churches: the Cathedral of Saint Paul and the Basilica of Saint Mary. Look for the Jubilee Cross in each of them.
• Perhaps visit our oldest Church of Saint Peter in Mendota and one of our newest churches. Saint Katherine Drexel in Ramsey is just about to be consecrated and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton in Hastings has just been renovated.
• Try to participate in a Mass that might expand your personal experience of liturgy—perhaps with our Maronite or Byzantine brothers and sisters, with one of our immigrant communities, with one of our Traditional Latin Mass communities, with the Catholic deaf community or with the University students at Saint
Lawrence in Dinkytown.
• Join us Sunday, October 12, for one of the morning Masses at the Cathedral and for an Ice Cream Social.
