SoulCore Prayer Experience


Join SoulCore Leader and Saint Andrew parishioner, Erin Thein, to nourish body, mind, and soul with SoulCore - a prayer experience that combines the prayers of the rosary with core strengthening, stretching, and functional movement. No fitness level or experience is required. 


A movement all its own, SoulCore is not affiliated with any other fitness disciplines. More specifically, it is not yoga, nor are yoga poses or Sanskrit referenced at any time.


Our Lady’s desire is always to lead us closer to her son Jesus. As a Marian apostolate, SoulCore imitates her in striving to draw others closer to Christ through deeper reflection on His life and virtues in the rosary.


All are welcome! Bring an exercise mat, water bottle, and a friend!


When: Monday evenings and Saturday mornings!


Mondays from 7:30-8:30 PM in Rooms 1 & 2:

February 24, March 10 & 24, April 7 & 21, May 5 & 19, June 2 & 23

All Saturdays during Lent, we will have a Soup and Sacrifice meal after 5:00 PM Mass. It is a time to gather with fellow parishioners over delicious homemade soups and desserts. Soup and Sacrifice is a free-will donation event. Funds will be given to CAER, the St. Andrew Conference of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, and Saint Andrew youth service projects.


If you’re planning to attend and you’re willing to help, there are many opportunities for you to be part of it! Many crocks of soup, as well as desserts, will be needed for this annual event. Volunteers are also needed to help with set up and clean up. Visit our ParishSoft Sign-up form or call the parish office at 763-441-1483.
