October 2, 2013
After hearing from over 100 Cathedral members and friends who attended Focus Groups in September, and after prayerful deliberation and discussion, the Dean and Chapter have unanimously decided to move forward with a Capital Campaign. This Campaign will take place over the next several weeks and will be completed early in December. During those weeks, we will all be given the opportunity to learn more about our Cathedral community and mission and to consider how we can support that mission through upgrading and improving our facilities and providing for sustainable financial support and new outreach initiatives.
You are invited to take time each day to pray for this Campaign and its purposes. Noonday Prayer will be offered in the All Saints Chapel at 12:10 pm Monday through Friday (Eucharist on Wednesdays) beginning October 7 through December 6. You are welcome to join us in the Chapel or to pray with us wherever you may be.
Prayer
Gracious God, we thank you for the gift of life, for the gift of new life in Christ, and for our calling to be part of the community of faith, worship and mission we know and love as the Cathedral of Saint Paul. We are grateful for its rich history and the legacy of those who have supported the Cathedral through their work, prayer, and gifts. We give thanks as well for our current vitality and promise. We pray that we will now open our hearts and minds to become generous in working, praying, and giving, so that your mission through the Cathedral may be strengthened for these days, and for years to come. We ask this through Jesus Christ. Amen.

History[edit]Charles Bennett and Daniel Sweet founded Pipestone in 1876. Bennett was intrigued by the prospect of visiting the site he had read about in Longfellow's poem. Despite blizzards, prairie fires, droughts and grasshoppers, the young village survived. In 1879, 22 businesses were operating in Pipestone, and by the following year that number had grown to 53. Pipestone was incorporated as a village in 1881. By 1890, Pipestone had train service on four different rail lines and had become a travel and business center hub for southwestern Minnesota. Pipestone was named after the red stone quarried by Native Americans to make pipe bowls.[9]
Pipestone is located in southwestern Minnesota. It is a leader in wind technology with nearly 800 wind generator towers located nearby on one of the area's top resources.
Pipestone was formerly home to a Native American Boarding School, which were known for their repression of Native American culture and contribution to the genocide and ethnocide of Native American people.[citation needed]
Geography[edit]According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 4.18 square miles (10.83 km2), all of it land.[2]
