About Us

Meaning of ChristSeed Name:

ChristSeed was chosen as the name of our collaboration group reminiscent of the way milkweed plants sustain the lifecycle of the butterfly, and the way that a milkweed pod opens in the fall, widely spreading seed.  In the same way, we see ChristSeed as a nurturing body for the area parishes and parish staffs.  We hope that our efforts grow mature plants that can continue to nurture Catholic faith in the St. Cloud Metro.  In this understanding, we formulated the following mission and vision statements: 

Mission Statement

As leaders in the parishes of the St. Cloud Metro area, we will serve as catalysts in strategizing and collaborating to form a greater consciousness and awareness of being a Catholic Community by using our gifts and resources God has given us for the good of the St. Cloud Metro Area Catholic Community.
