Where to Park
In response to the Governor's Stay at Home order and for the common good and well-being of our community, The Basilica of Saint Mary will be closed until further notice. The church and other buildings are not open to the public. Staff are working remotely and will respond to emails and phone calls as promptly as possible.

We will continue to livestream Mass Monday - Friday at noon and Sunday at 9:30 am via Facebook live at facebook.com/BasilicaMpls. Masses will be posted to our website shortly after Mass concludes.
