St Agnes is a nationally known parish in St. Paul MN, a parish that is completely unrennovated, they do not even have a altar table, you can see more information at www.stagnes.net .

The parish as much as some may hate this is really a sign of the future, since half of the St Paul Archdiocese' seminarians come from this parish.

Another important and unexplained issue I am sure the priests and bishops are going to discuss... ;-)

Nice parish! I just checked out the webpage. It's weird... our only "untouched" parish here in the Arch of Boston was built by German immigrants as well.

It's not, JNB. New churches will continue to be built in the semi-round, or traditionally, with rows of pews, with an altar table.

This is a traditional church that continues to carry much of the traditional trappings. There is little demand for Latin Masses, even for the Latin Novus Ordo Masses.

How many parishes in the diocese of Minneapolis-St. Paul feature a Latin Novus Ordo?
