If I, therefore, the master and teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash one another’s feet.” (John 13:13-14) Benedictine Sisters
“Listen” is the first word of the Rule of Benedict, and is at the heart of discernment.

MSP Catholic started with the realization that there are so many amazing Catholic things happening in the Twin Cities...but they aren't always that easy to find.
This is where it all comes together so that it's easier to get involved, find out what's going on outside of your network, and invite others to join you. Our hope is to centralize and amplify the great things our groups, parishes, and individuals are doing. Do we have everything on our site? No, but we're making connections and adding new things all the time. YOU can be a huge asset in that. If there's something that our audience needs to know about, please drop us a note so we can get more people involved in the great work of our Catholic community. MSP Catholic is an initiative run by CEND - the Center for Evangelization and Discipleship - whose mission is to help all Young Adults find a home in a Catholic parish. This website is only half of the story of what we do. Click below to find out more. Click Here for Link to MSP Catholic Website |
