Welcome
to Our Catholic Church
Pastor's Message
From Father Baer, Pastor:
We deliberately put the words “Catholic” in this opening welcome. At Transfiguration, we are Catholic. We’re not ashamed of it; in fact, we’re very excited about it! At Transfiguration, we believe, celebrate, and proclaim the fullness of the Catholic Faith that has been given to the Church down through the centuries.

Liturgical Ministers Needed
Can you serve the Parish once every 3 weeks while attending Sunday Mass? Our 5:00 p.m., 8:30 a.m., and 10:30 a.m. Masses are looking for additional Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion to volunteer every three weeks at your preferred Mass time. Our EMHCs fulfill an important role in the life of our Parish Community. We appreciate each of them, and each of you who are willing to assist in this way.
Catholic Spirit Facebook Post
Here's what they had to say: Children attending the 2017 Summer Choir Camp at Transfiguration Catholic Church & School, Oakdale, MN sing a tribute to Father Dennis Evenson in honor of the 50th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. The song, "Noi Vogliam Dio," was sung at his ordination Mass July 8, 1967.
