Synod Implementation

2025-2026

Reclaiming the Lord’s Day

As we give focus to “Reclaiming Sundays,” we start with the importance of participating in Sunday Mass. Jesus Christ died so that we may have eternal life; God asks us to worship Him every Sunday (and Holy Day of Obligation) so that we can become the saints that He wants us to be. As Dr. Naughton of Catholic Studies at the University of St. Thomas likes to state, “If we don’t get Sundays right, we won’t get Mondays right.”

July Initiative – Creation
The Reclaiming Sundays theme for July is “Creation.” The Lord has given us the Lord’s Day (called the Sabbath before Jesus’ earthly ministry) to bless and delight the fullness of our work. Creation is celebrated and blessed on the day of rest and seen as good. It is in acknowledgment of the gift and blessing of creation that we can more fully appreciate God’s providence.

Activities for July
Get outdoors! Schedule an outing to a park and leave behind your cell phones (or at least put them on silent). Take in the natural sights and sounds that you see and thank God for them.
Honor your grandparents!

Small Groups are here at

St Gregory the Great

Archbishop Hebda’s pastoral letter, You Will Be My Witnesses, sets forth a beautiful path for our Archdiocese: a way for every parish to be, as Pope Francis says, a “community of communities.” St. Gregory the Great parish is taking the next step on this path in Lent by launching small groups designed to: foster personal relationships, build community, and provide formation so we all may grow as joyful missionary disciples of Christ. Each Small Group will focus on the topic of Prayer throughout Lent and move towards other topics after Lent such as Eucharist, Gospels, and Saints

Be a part of this mission: join a Small Group! It’s not too late (nor will it ever be – these groups are ongoing) to sign up for one, so please contact the parish office if you would like to do so. 651-674-4056 or info@stgregorynb.org.

Fr. Matt’s Christian Resource Recommendations

We live in an age like none other, especially with regards to communications. For the faith, we have more resources than ever before. I would like to share my favorite ones with you in the hope that you would also benefit from them. As I discover other resources, I will share them on the parish website.

 Fr. Matt’s Christian Resource Recommendations

The Pope’s Prayer Intentions

Every year, the Holy Father entrusts twelve prayer intentions to the Church—one for each month—through the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network. This organization works to encourage Christians to respond to the Pope’s appeal and to deepen their daily prayer.

The Pope’s intentions reflect the deepest needs of our world and the mission of the Church. They are born from a global process of listening and discernment, and chosen by the Pope after his own time of prayer.

Here we will highlight the Pope’s monthly intentions for 2026. We invite you to pray with us and to help spread the mission. Share the intentions with your parish, family, and friends. May God hear our Holy Father’s intentions. This we pray, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

JULY 2026 For respect for human life.
Let us pray for the respect and protection of human life in all its stages, recognizing it as a gift from God.

JUNE 2026 – For the values of sports.
Let us pray that sports be an instrument of peace, encounter, and dialogue among cultures and nations, and that they promote values such as respect, solidarity, and personal growth.

MAY 2026 – That everyone might have food.
Let us pray that everyone, from large producers to small consumers, be committed to avoid wasting food, and to ensure that everyone has access to quality food.
