All women of the parish over 18 years old are members of the CCW and are invited to participate in CCW activities. We meet 4 times a year. All women of the parish belong to one of the seven ‘Circles’ that support the needs of the CCW:

Women are assigned to a circle upon becoming a member of St. Paul’s Parish.

Nursing Home Ministers

Nursing Home Ministers bring Communion to the Zumbrota Care Center each Sunday. They also bring Communion to the homebound.

 

Parish Finance Committee

The Parish Finance Committee is a group of appointed parishioners who have an advisory and consultative role with the Pastor. It is concerned with parish resources, budget, support and the effective use and maintenance of facilities. The Finance Committee reviews and recommends the annual budget and the annual Parish report.

 

The finance committee meets quarterly.

 

Parish Pastoral Council

The Parish Pastoral Council shall be an advisory body to the pastor in determining and attaining the spiritual needs and Christian Vision of the Parish. The pastor, as representative of the Archbishop, has ultimate decision making powers in parish matters.

 

The council meets on the 2nd Wednesday of the month.

 

 

Faith Formation Program

 

Religious Education

St. Paul’s Faith Formation program runs from September through May. Our 3, 4, & 5 year olds meet during Mass for Children’s Liturgy. Students in grades 1-12 meet on Wednesday or Sunday evenings. Classes on Wednesday evenings are 6:30 -7:30pm for grades 1-4, and 7:30-8:30pm for grades 5—8. Our Confirmation students meet on assigned Sunday evenings.

 

St. Paul’s also has an active youth group. Last year, some of our students were able to go on a mission trip to Cass Lake. They learned many valuable lessons while on this trip. We hope to send more youth this year.

 

Our parish also participates in the Generations of Faith program. Generations of Faith is an innovative approach to parish faith formation that involves all generations in learning and growing together through their experience and participation in church life. Generations of Faith provides an integrated and comprehensive approach to faith formation that equips the parish community to become a community of learning by creating lifelong faith formation that is centered in the events of church life, embraces all ages and generations, and promotes faith growth at home, through parish preparation programs, and, most importantly, through participation in church life. We hold 3 to 4 events per year and they are enjoyed by all!
