Winter Weather Policy
In the event of a blizzard warning in Fargo-Moorhead, or when St. Joseph’s School is cancelled, the parish office will be closed and all activities cancelled, including daily morning Mass. Weekend Mass will ordinarily be celebrated for those who can safely make it to the church. If a “no travel advisory” is in effect parishioners should stay home. Cancellations will be decided on a case-by-case basis in the event of less severe weather (such as a winter storm warning). In all cases of severe weather, closings and cancellations will be advertised on local TV and radio stations KVLY, KFGO, and WDAY, and on this website. -
