Fr. Tollefson Prepares
for Sabbatical
                                In the Bible, mention is made of “the Sabbath”: on the seventh day God rested from all
                                of his work in creating the universe. The Sabbath is a time to worship God, to rest in
                                Him, and to contemplate. It is a time to take time to look back and see where one has
                                been, to give thanks for those blessings and challenges, and thereby to gather strength
                                for the journey that is ahead.

                                Many, many changes have happened in our parish and in my personal life here at St.
                                Hubert in the past 10 years: both of my parents died, I sold my family home and pos-
                                sessions, and have suffered in various ways, just as we all do. I am so very grateful for
                                your love and care during these difficult times.

                                It is the custom of Christian clergy to go on a “Sabbath” of their own, called a “Sab-
                                batical,” ideally, as laid out in the Bible and in Church practice, every seven years. Of
   Fr. Rolf Tollefson, Pastor   course, this rarely happens. I have not had a sabbatical in twenty years of priesthood.
                                It is time for one.

                                Notably, this is not a “leave of absence,” but a sabbatical.

                                Recently, I applied for and was approved for a sabbatical by Archbishop Hebda. The
                                dates of my sabbatical are April 18, 2022 through August 18, 2022. I will remain pas-
                                tor of St. Hubert, but I will not be here, nor will I be checking or responding to emails.

                                So, what will I do during that time? Slot machine ministry in Vegas? Endless Star Trek
                                conventions? What?

                                The Church sees a sabbatical as a time of study, rest, human connection, and prayer.

                                Accordingly, I put my own program together of personal refreshment, a program that
                                I believe will help me be refreshed and have renewed zeal for my work here at St.
                                Hubert.

                                Intellectually, I desire to study best practices for men’s ministry and fatherhood, a criti-
                                cal issue in our Church and in our world today as fatherlessness is killing civilization as
                                we know it. I will be studying at the University of Cambridge in England at Ridley Hall,
                                an Anglican seminary in the evangelical tradition. I chose to study in England because

music and choral music help me greatly to be refreshed and renewed, and Cambridge
is an international center of outstanding choral music. (Think Christmas Eve Lessons
and Carols from King’s College, Cambridge.)

But I also chose to go to Europe for my sabbatical in order to do genealogical research
in England and Germany. Though my ridiculously Norwegian name may sound like
                                                                                           “I will go to see

reconnect with a friend from seminary who is a priest serving in Paris at Sacre Coeur.

I also hope to make connections in Milan in Italy with fellow adherents to the ecclesial
movement within the Catholic Church called “Communion and Liberation” and pray
at the tomb of the founder of this Movement, Fr. Luigi Giussani. I hope to pray at my
patron saint/confirmation saint, St. Augustine’s tomb in Pavia, just to the south of
Milan. If all goes according to plan, I will also study in the Holy Land. My sabbatical
will conclude in August with some time at a cabin in northern Minnesota where I will
be doing some work and some writing, reflecting, and praying.

A temporary parochial administrator, Fr. Doug Ebert, a now-retired priest, former pas-
tor of Guardian Angels in Chaska and of St. John Neumann in Eagan, will be “pastor”
in my absence, as I will be unable to communicate with you when I am gone. He is a
former pilot of Northwest Airlines and a fine man and priest.

Of course, all of this is contingent on the latest COVID trends…please pray that Europe
is open for business come spring.

St. Hubert Staff Updates
                   Introducing Nathan Lunsford, Director of Discipleship
                   We are excited to welcome Nathan Lunsford to St. Hubert as our new Director of Discipleship! Na-
                   than, who lives with his wife in St. Paul, comes to St. Hubert with a wealth of experience in ministry
                   and theological education. As an undergraduate at the University of St. Thomas, he studied Theolo-
                   gy with an emphasis on lay ministry. Both during and after his time at St. Thomas, Nathan served as
                   a youth formation minister for several years, before deciding to continue his theological training at
                   Marquette University, where he earned an MA in Theology and completed additional, doctorate-lev-
                   el coursework. During his time at Marquette, Nathan also served as a residence hall minister for
                   Marquette’s campus ministry department and taught in the Theology department as adjunct fac-
                   ulty. Feeling called to share his gifts in a ministry setting, Nathan is excited to serve as St. Hubert’s
                   Director of Discipleship and is looking forward to getting to know the people of this parish.

                   Introducing Cathie Baier, Associate Director of Discipleship for
                   Elementary Catechesis
                   We are excited to introduce our new Associate Director of Discipleship for Elementary Catechesis,
                   Cathie Baier! Cathie comes to St. Hubert from Nativity of Mary Catholic Church in Bloomington.
                   She lives in Bloomington with her husband Kevin, and five of her six children. She’s been working in
                   various areas of discipleship since 2013 when she ran VBS, K-8 Religious Education, and Sacrament
                   Preparation at Holy Family Catholic Church in St. Louis Park. She started working at Nativity of Mary
                   in 2015 doing VBS, PreK-8 Faith Formation, and Catechesis of the Good Shepherd. She is excited to
                   meet all the volunteers and families as we kick off this year of discipleship.

                   Diane Potts, Pastoral Minister, Announces Retirement
                   It is with much happiness (and sadness) that I share that I am retiring on October 15. I will be mov-
                   ing on to the next phase of my life to spend more time with family in North Dakota.

                   I have had a wonderful experience working with all of you over the past 22 years. When I first started
                   my career at St. Hubert in 1999, I was responsible for the Sunday School program. This quickly ex-
                   panded to Elementary Faith Formation (grades one through five) after the departure of the director of
                   the program. In 2007, the position of Pastoral Minister became available and I accepted the chal-
                   lenge. I have been working with the seniors of the community along with prayer shawl, card ministry,
                   homebound ministry and other pastoral care activities ever since. It has truly been a blessing to get
                   to know everyone and share in your many gifts along the way. St. Hubert parish been my second
                   family and I really appreciate each and every one of you for being a part of my life.

                   God has blessed me with so many wonderful St. Hubert friends and I will miss all of you.

the culture of our library program. The ultimate purpose of
these changes is to incorporate even deeper the main tenets of
the mission of our school: to teach as Jesus did within the con-
text of the teachings of the Catholic Church, educate the whole
child and build a spiritual foundation that will last a lifetime.
The way we can do this is by providing a hub of learning for
our students. Our library program is unique to school settings
because we supplement our religion curriculum with books on
our Catholic faith. There is also a clearly marked section of our
space with faith-centered books for student check out.

After the last few years of feeling separated from each other
due to Covid, it feels great to be able to start the school year
back together, in person and having a designated space in the
building for students and teachers to connect and collaborate.
This year feels like a perfect time to offer the students an area

Committing to fostering a love of reading for all our students regardless of
                                                   their reading levels and providing students with access to books and stories
                                                   to support their academic, spiritual, and emotional growth
                                                   Seemingly with a cell phone in every pocket, we aim to redirect our students’
                                                   understanding of reading from something to check off a list or as a task to
                                                   complete to instead a gift we give ourselves. Studies have shown that reading
                                                   for pleasure helps reduce anxiety in students and we are working to promote
                                                   healthy, lifelong habits.

                                                   Curating a book collection to support all readers and curriculum needs
                                                   As the book collection was reorganized in the redesigned space, we developed
                                                   a plan of purchasing and accumulating new books for the future of the Learning
                                                   Commons. Having nonfiction books in print to supplement a unit of study in the
                                                   classroom is helpful to teachers and students. When learning can be expanded
                                                   beyond a lesson into literature or an area of interest, knowledge can be self-
                                                   directed, and that is exciting to see as an educator and a parent. We can now
                                                   offer new and anticipated books that they are excited to read.

                                                    Including the students in the process
                                                    In the spring, a survey was sent out to the upcoming seventh and eighth grade
                                                    students asking them what they wanted to see in the space and book recom-
                                                    mendations they had for the collection. Including their opinions and feelings in
the decisions was helpful because ultimately the space is for them and we wanted to empower them to use their voice for changes
they want to see in their world. The hope is that they feel heard and empowered. When overwhelmingly they wrote they wanted a
couch to sit and read on, they got it! We are excited to see how they use the space and how it changes with what they let us know
they want and need.

At a time when so much feels that it has been taken from our students, the Learning Commons is something we could give them
and we are so hopeful that the space grows with the students and adapts with their needs.

                                                                                                     halo –October 2021            9

Welcome New SHS Staff
                                     Kathleen Ausman, Seventh & Eighth Grade Language Arts
                                     I am very thankful to have the opportunity to return to St. Hubert Catholic School this year as
                                     the seventh through eighth grade Language Arts teacher. I previously taught at St. Hubert during
                                     the 2016-2018 school years until my youngest child was born. Then I stayed home for a couple
                                     years to care for my young children who were four years old, three years old, and a newborn at
                                     the time. Prior to joining the faculty at St. Hubert in 2016, I was the sixth through eighth grade
                                     Language Arts teacher at St. Helena Catholic School in Minneapolis. Last school year, I covered
                                     a year-long, long-term substitute position in seventh and eighth grade Language Arts at St. John
                                     the Baptist Catholic School in Savage. This year will be my ninth year of teaching Language Arts
                                     in a middle school setting. I especially love studying Shakespeare, discussing full-class novels,
                                     and teaching writing at this level.

Growing up in Wisconsin in a family of six, I am the oldest of four girls. I attended Catholic schools throughout my education and
was blessed to have had many incredible, faith-filled teachers who inspired me to pursue the same path. I came to the Twin Cities
to complete my undergraduate degree and earn my teaching license at the University of Saint Thomas. Following graduation, I
earned my secondary teaching license in 2011 and have lived in Minnesota ever since. My husband and I have been married for
nine years and have been blessed with three children who will also be St. Hubert students this year: a daughter in second grade, a
son in first grade, and a son in preschool. I am grateful that my children will be able to accompany me at St. Hubert this year, and
I am excited for all the opportunities that await them, both academically and in their continuing faith formation. In my free time
I love to read books for myself and with my children, try to bake new recipes, sing at my parish, spend time outdoors (preferably
near a lake), and spend quality time with my family.

                                                      Julie Katz, Sixth Grade Teacher
                                                      My name is Julie Katz and I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to work at
                                                      St. Hubert Catholic School. I am the new sixth grade teacher surrounded by
                                                      an amazing group of educators. As an alumna of St. Hubert Catholic School, I
                                                      wanted my children to experience the beautifully supportive community that
                                                      we have. My husband, Lou and I have four children at SHCS: Liam, Lydia, and
                                                      Lillian in seventh grade and Luke in third grade.

                                                      It is truly amazing how God shows us where he wants us to be. I have been
a stay-at-home mom for the past 13 years, and did not know that I would be teaching this year. However, I thought if they need-
ed help somewhere I would offer. St. Hubert took me up on my offer! With a background in education, I taught kindergarten in
Florida for four years before having children. I have a BA in Spanish from the University of Minnesota and a Masters in Elementary
Education from Northern Illinois University.

My favorite thing to do is to spend time with my family and my dog, Lucy. I am an avid tennis player and I enjoy traveling every-
where. There is so much to see, and we have only one life to live!

                              My name is Susie Hiemenz and I am delighted to be a part of St. Hubert Catholic School this year
                              teaching second grade! I have two brothers, two sisters, and two black cats! I named them Fran-
                              cis and Clare after St. Francis and St. Clare who were friends in real life…unlike my two kitties!! I
                              go to Lake Superior every summer with dear friends. It is my favorite spot on earth!

                              I attended St. Ben’s for my undergraduate degree and St. Thomas for my Master’s in Curriculum
                              and Instruction with an emphasis in Theology. My master’s thesis was on differentiation in the
                              mixed ability classroom. I am a certified Orton Gillingham tutor for primary and intermediate
                              grades. The Orton Gillingham approach is specifically designed to support struggling readers,
                              including dyslexic students.

                              For 19 years I worked at Our Lady of Grace in Edina where I taught fifth, third, and second grade. I
                              taught second grade for six years at Holy Spirit in St. Paul and second grade for one year at Sha-
 kopee Area Catholic Schools. Now I am thrilled to be joining this wonderful St. Hubert community. I love teaching, and second
 grade is my favorite because I get to teach the sacraments to the students. Being able to experience the sacraments of First
 Reconciliation and First Holy Communion with my students is one of my greatest joys as a teacher! I consider it an honor. I
 am especially excited this year because it marks the first time in my career when I will teach the child of a former student I
 had while working at Our Lady of Grace!

Peter Benson, Fifth Grade Teacher
Minnesota for me has always been home for me! I attended Holy Name
of Jesus in Wayzata for elementary school and went onto Wayzata
public schools for middle and high school. After high school, I received
my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from Saint John’s Univer-
sity. For the past four years I have been teaching third grade and second
grade at Glen Lake Elementary in Minnetonka, MN. Additionally, I coach
Junior Varsity Girls Hockey in Eden Prairie, MN.

During my free time I play townball in nearby Carver, MN for the Carver
Black Sox. Our team has enjoyed a lot of success in recent years and
we even made it to the Minnesota Amatuer Baseball State tournament
hosted in Waconia, Chaska, and Hamburg. I also enjoy spending time with my family, including my four sisters, my nephew Henry
(five) and my nieces Rose (three) and Rachel (one). Furthermore, I love to camp in the summer months up along the North Shore,
especially in the little town of Finland, MN. My family and I make at least one trip up there each year and I wouldn’t miss it for
anything!

Everyone at St. Hubert has been incredibly welcoming to me so far and I am very excited to join the St. Hubert Catholic Communi-
ty! I look forward to making lasting connections with students and staff alike.

St. Hubert has a New Resource Teacher!
By Jen Laaksonen

                                     I am really looking forward to joining St. Hubert Catholic School this year as a resource teacher!
                                     As a resource teacher, I will provide elementary, small group literacy instruction to support aca-
                                     demic success. I’ll be working with small groups in literacy intervention and literacy enrichment.

                                     I grew up just outside Dallas, Texas and attended the University of Denver, double majoring in
                                     International Studies and Geography. While at the University of Denver, I played volleyball for
                                     the Pioneers and met my husband, Antti. We got married in Denver and moved to Boston, Prov-
                                     idence, Raleigh, Denver, Minnesota, Finland, and Switzerland before finally settling in Minnesota
                                     in 2010. After being a stay-at-home mom for 15 years, I decided to pursue my passion for teach-
                                     ing and added an Elementary Education degree with a minor in Pre-Primary to my resume.

                                   For the past seven years, I have been a second-grade teacher at Cologne Academy in Cologne,
                                   MN. We live in Victoria and have three children: Annika, who just graduated from the University
of Minnesota this spring, Thomas, (St. Hubert alumnus) a sophomore at Holy Family, and Sonja, (St. Hubert alumna) a freshman
at Holy Family. We have two dogs, Max and Opie, who keep us on our toes. In my free time I enjoy spending time with family and
friends, watching my children play sports, and reading, traveling, and being outdoors in God’s beautiful creation.

Meet our New Spanish Teacher!                                                                          By Maria A. Echeverria

                                             Hi, my name is Maria A. Echeverria. I was born in Quito, Ecuador where I received my
                                             Bachelor’s degree in Theology and an Associate in Bilingual Secretarial Science. I have
                                             worked in the field of education from Ecuador and have traveled around South Amer-
                                             ica giving conferences, and teaching workshops. However, my adventure as a Spanish
                                             teacher began when I moved to the United States in 2010.

                                             I am married to a wonderful American man named Matthew who brought me to my
                                             new home. Since then, I started my beautiful and challenging career teaching my
                                             first language, which I enjoy very much and is one of my passions. I have experience
                                             teaching Spanish from infants to adults. I love teaching about my culture, and it is very
                                             special when I meet people who like to learn about it.

                                             I currently live in Chanhassen with my husband Matthew and my two dogs Nicolas and
                                             Bianca. I enjoy walking with my dogs, exploring new places with my husband, watching
                                             movies, dancing Zumba, listening to music, and hanging out with my friends in my free
                                             time. I am very excited to be a part of the St. Hubert community this year as the middle
                                             school Spanish teacher.
