First Friday Adoration - May
Friday, May 03, 2024 at 09:00 AM · 1 rsvp
Our work as faithful citizens must be led by prayer – Ora et Labora. This is not just a practice for Benedictine monks, but for all Catholics. So, the Minnesota Catholic Conference invites you to join our staff for Adoration at the Capitol. By bringing Christ to the Capitol, we can pray together for our elected officials at their place of work.
Join us the first Friday of May (5/3/24) for any amount of time from 9 A.M. – 4 P.M. in the Governor’s Dining Room (B420), located on the basement level of the Minnesota State Capitol.
Parking and Entrance Instructions:
Free street parking is available on Park Street and Charles Avenue. The map provided below shows how to walk from our office to the Capitol building. You may also enter through the Senate office building and use the tunnel to the Capitol.
For groups of more than 5 people, please contact us so that we can make accommodations.
