Tenebrae - A Tradition at St. Mary’s Cathedral

Everyone is welcome at St. Mary’s Cathedral in St. Cloud on Good Friday evening, April 18, at 8:00 pm for Tenebrae, which is Latin for shadows or darkness.  At this event, participants will experience the gradual extinction of all lights in the church, symbolizing the temporary triumph of the prince of darkness over the Light of the World, and loud noises created at the end of the service by the assembly and ministers, suggesting the earthquake described in the Passion Narratives.

Rise! Evenings of Faith, Hope, and Healing

You Are Invited to RISE! ✨
An Evening of Faith, Hope & Healing

There is a reason you’re seeing this message. Maybe you're searching. Maybe you're struggling. Maybe you are in a place of deep gratitude and thanksgiving! Maybe you're simply curious. Wherever you are in life... in faith, in doubt, in joy, in peace, or in pain... you are welcome here.

Join us for RISE!, a 3-night parish mission at Saint Mary’s Cathedral (Upper Church) on the first three Mondays of May (May 5, 12, and 19) as we open our hearts to the healing love of God through praise and worship, prayer, testimonials, speakers, adoration, and reconciliation.

Whether you're Catholic or not, active in your faith or haven’t stepped into a church in years, this invitation is for you. Come and encounter the Holy Spirit in a deeply personal way.

“Rise, take up your mat, and walk.” – John 5:8
Just like the man who was healed by Jesus, we believe He is still calling people to rise today, to experience hope, freedom, and restoration.

This is a casual, come-as-you-are event. It’s even okay if you’re late. Bring your troubles & cares, bring your kids, bring your heart, just come with anticipation of peace.

Light refreshments and fellowship will follow each evening in the Lower Church reception area.

Because Catholic Mission goes where there is need, meets who is in need, and does whatever it can to encourage a response to God’s infinite love.

All are welcome. Believers. Non-believers. The unsure. The searching. The tired. The hopeful.
Come and Rise.
