MISSION

 

We welcome, gather, glorify and serve.
The Catholic Community of Saint Thomas More
is a welcoming Jesuit parish that glorifies God through worship, faith formation, accompaniment, and works of mercy and justice.

 



VISION


Saint Thomas More is a welcoming, inclusive parish community.
We welcome all, 
wherever they are on their faith journey. We embrace all ages and stages of life and backgrounds.  We honor the voices and involvement of women and accompany the seekers who may have been estranged or marginalized in the past. We walk with short-term visitors and long-term members to fully participate in the life and mission of the Church.


Saint Thomas More is a vibrant faith community.
We faithfully celebrate the liturgy with reverence and joy. As the only Jesuit parish in Minnesota, Ignatian Spirituality is the cornerstone for our faith life. 

Saint Thomas More supports lifelong learning and ongoing faith development.
We provide comprehensive faith formation opportunities for all ages, from young children to teens to adults. STM serves as a hub for high school ministry and Ignatian experiences. The Ignatian Spirituality Center is a source of rich programming that reaches all segments of the parish community and beyond. 

Saint Thomas More provides a thriving, high-quality, Jesuit Catholic school environment.
In the Jesuit tradition, families of all backgrounds and faith traditions are welcome. The school fosters academic excellence and a strong sense of belonging; it is a vital part of our neighboring communities.

Saint Thomas More demonstrates a commitment to justice and service.
The parish is a justice leader and partners with other ministries and faith organizations to serve our broader community. A robust variety of justice and service opportunities engage parishioners of all ages.

Saint Thomas More models sustainable and responsible practices.
We give life to the Jesuit Apostolic Preference of Caring for Our Common Home by ensuring that sustainability and ecological impacts are reflected in campus plans, projects, and management. We engage parishioners, visitors, and students in the goal of being a zero-waste campus.


PARISH SCHOOL

 

Saint Thomas More Catholic School was also created in 2008 by the merger of the two parishes. Historically, each parish operated separate schools until they joined their schools in 1991 as IHM-St. Luke's School. While the school's name is new, their 100-plus year commitment to high-quality education remains firmly in place.
