Welcome to St. John the Baptist parish, a Catholic community of 1333 families, nestled in the beautiful and scenic Minnesota River valley of Mankato, MN.
St. John's is a parish rich in history and tradition, led by holy and faithful priests since 1885. The legacy of faith-filled liturgies, inspirational preaching, quality educational programming, and exceptional social justice programs continues and is instrumental in building the Kingdom of God for the salvation of all.
We hope you will visit our site often, and if you are visiting the Mankato area, we warmly invite you to share in the liturgy with us.

St. John the Baptist Church Capital Campaign
The word “Gather” tells of the importance of the gathering space in the project as well as the sense of family and community within St. John’s. The word “Spirit” implies the spirit within each of us and our parish, the spirit behind the project, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit throughout the campaign and project. The words “Inspire the Faith” speaks of our commitment to the legacy of the people before us and our duty to continue that legacy for future generations.
