Mission Statement: 
With the Holy Spirit pouring the love of God into our hearts, we invite people to Christ by living like Christ through prayer, service, and learning.


Vision Statement: St. John the Baptist Catholic Church values life-long inter-generational learning, committed to competent leadership and works of service and justice. By welcoming all who come, we experience Jesus alive in us. 


Dear Friends, 

​Welcome to St. John the Baptist Parish in Mankato, MN. As faithful stewards, we believe that all of life is a gift from God. We are committed to taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ out into the world. With Christ as our model, St. John the Baptist Catholic Church is a faith-based parish, committed to sharing the Gospel Message in word and sacrament and using our time, talent and treasure to build the Kingdom of God for the salvation of all.

The vision of St. John’s parish family professes to:
     ~ celebrate the sacraments well. We root our lives in the Word of God and the Eucharist;
     ~ strive to extend hospitality to everyone who comes to the parish. We accept everyone where they are in life, with the hope              of offering a life based on Jesus Christ;
     ~ accept the call to good stewardship by supporting the parish financially, giving time in ministry and sharing our talents to serve others;
     ~ work continuously for change to empower the poor and powerless. We develop relationships with those we seek to empower.

We are a parish with a rich history and a promising future. As a growing parish of 1,300+ households, we value the unique gifts, talents and backgrounds of our parishioners. Our gathering for Eucharist each weekend is the highlight of our week and of who we are in Christ. We extend an invitation to all who seek God to come and worship with us.

Sincerely In Christ, 

​Fr. John M. Kunz
