Space Rentals

Host your wedding reception, meeting, recital, or celebration on our historic campus. Six unique spaces are available to parishioners and the wider community.

Booking a space happens through the Parish Office โ€” not this page.

To confirm your rental and provide payment, contact Shirley at [email protected], the Parish Office at [email protected], or call (507) 388-2995. The Facility Usage/Indemnity Agreement below is required for every rental, but submitting it does not reserve a space.

Start here: send a rental request online, and the Parish Office will follow up to confirm.
