Prayer Ministries
Prayers at Weekend Masses (Sunday Prayers)
During each of the weekend Masses, the Prayers of the Faithful include a prayer for all who are sick or have died. Individual names may be included for those members of our parish family who are very near death or have experienced a catastrophic event [like a serious car accident] where it is uncertain whether the outcome will be life or death. Typically a name would appear for a week or two before moving to the Prayer Line for ongoing support or to Prayers for Those Who Have Died.
Names of parishioners whose Funeral Mass is here at Saint Rose are automatically included on the Sunday Prayers. To request adding names of parishioners to the Sunday Prayers for other reasons, please call 651-645-9389.
Prayer Line
One call to The Prayer Line brings your prayer request to every ember of our Prayer Line Ministry Team. Only the first name and the need are given to protect confidentiality. The Prayer Line Teams receive a variety of requests for prayer, including ongoing prayers during an extended recovery or for chronic health conditions, upcoming surgery, a safe pregnancy, struggles with alcohol or drugs, unemployment. Check the weekly Bulletin for more information.
Prayer Shawl Ministry
Parishioners who knit or crochet create Prayer Shawls for Pastoral Care Staff and Volunteers to bring to those who are experiencing life challenges such as serious illness. Call the Pastoral Care Office 651-357-1202 if you know someone who might appreciate a Prayer Shawl or if you would like to become part of this ministry.
Kids Cards Ministry
Children Grades 1-8 in our School and Religious Education Programs make “You Are In Our Prayers” cards for members of our Parish Family who are hospitalized, homebound or in care centers. They have been a favorite part of visits made by Pastoral Staff and volunteers. Children in our Sunday and weekday Preschool programs make “May God’s Love Brighten Your Day” cards for other Pastoral Care purposes.
