Welcome to Immaculate Heart Church
in beautiful Crosslake, MN!
Immaculate Heart Church is a vibrant Catholic parish in beautiful Crosslake on the Whitefish Chain of Lakes in north-central Minnesota. We are part of the Diocese of Duluth and built a splendid new church just over 10 years ago. Our wooded grounds feature a grotto of the Blessed Virgin and a paved walking path with outdoor Stations of the Cross. Whether you are a visitor, seasonal member, or simply interested in exploring Catholicism, come join us. Truly, all are welcome. May God bless you and may Jesus Christ be praised!

A Message from Bishop Felton
Dear Parishioners and Friends of the Parish,
Blessings in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
I am happy to announce that Fr. Dale Nau will be appointed as the administrator of St. Emily and Immaculate Heart parishes, effective December 6, 2021. Fr. Dale will serve in this capacity until a pastor is assigned to your parish. He will live at the rectory and attend to the sacramental and administrative needs of the parish staff and parishioners. Fr. Dale himself asked to be the administrator of these parishes because of his care and love for your parish. He will provide a consistent priestly presence and stability for you as parishioners.
From now until December 6, I am working with your parish leadership to make sure that parish services and activities continue with the least amount of disruption.
I appreciate your patience during this interim time. I am also very thankful for your parish staff and the priests who have gone the extra mile in taking care of your pastoral needs.
May God bless you and your parish community,
