Jesse Tree Gift Card Collection

Our Jesse Tree VISA Gift Card Collection will take place from Nov. 8 through Dec. 6. The Trees are outside the Church, or Gym.  If you would like to buy a VISA gift card, please select an ornament, purchase the gift card and return it by Dec. 6.  Place the gift card, with the ornament attached, in the box beneath the tree in the Welcome Center or the Church vestibule. This year our gifts will serve the Minneapolis American Indian Golden Eagles Boys and Girls Club and Project for Pride in Living.  Thank you for your generosity!

St. Joan of Arc Honored

From the Risen Christ November 2026 Newsletter:

Risen Christ is pleased to present the Saint Joan of Arc Catholic Community with this year's Circle of Light Award in recognition of their longstanding support of our school.

We chose to honor Saint Joan of Arc not only for their generosity, but also for the way they embody the spirit of community and collaboration that makes Risen Christ special. When they learned of our need during Operation Metro Surge, the response was immediate and overwhelming: 250 parishioners signed up to help that very same day. Their tremendous support was a powerful example of what it means to stand alongside our community when support is needed most.

We are grateful for their continued partnership and the care they show our students and families. Congratulations to Saint Joan of Arc Catholic Community, and thank you for helping Risen Christ continue to shine!

Survey Regarding Safe and Welcoming Environment

 The SJA Safety Team would like your input about what makes you feel safe while at SJA and what we can do to improve physical and emotional safety on campus.  If you are unable to attend one of the listening sessions described on the Parish Life page, please respond to a short survey before Monday, November 16, 2026. You may respond online by clicking here. If you prefer to use a paper copy, the survey is available at the reception desk in the Parish Center.  The three questions we will ask at the listening session and on the survey are: 

1.  What makes you feel welcome and safe at SJA?
2.  What would make you feel more safe and welcome at SJA?
3.  How can you contribute to keeping a safe and welcoming environment at SJA?
