Churches of the Nativity
& the Immaculate Conception 

03-27-20 Update:
New bulletin article from Father Stiles is available in the Events & News section. Thank you to all whom were able to join us this evening on Facebook LIVE with Fr. Sandquist (and Fr. Stiles) for the preached rosary on the sorrowful mysteries this evening. We hope to do more live-streaming events in the near future so please stay tuned. Thank you.

03-24-20 Update:

• Sunday homilies and other messages will continue to be posted here on the parish website.
• An audio recording of Fr. Sandquist's preached rosary on the sorrowful mysteries will be posted on Friday, March 27th.
• "Drive-thru" confessions are taking place in the parking lot at Nativity on Saturdays 3-4pm and in the St. Mary's parking lot in Le Center on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 6-7pm.
• The priests will continue to celebrate Mass for the scheduled Mass intentions.  Daily Mass intentions will remain the same. Some Sunday/weekend Mass intentions may be combined if permission is given by those who requested them, otherwise those intentions will be rescheduled.
• The priests are continuing to celebrate Masses in the churches they were originally scheduled to take place in. If you happen to hear the church bell ring (at either Nativity or Marysburg), that means Mass is about to be celebrated inside. Remember to lift up any intentions to the Lord that the priest will be praying for.

We pray - "My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most holy Eucharist. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen."
