Grow

We understand that our mission statement is not easy to live out. It's a process. Loving our neighbors takes practice. Striving for justice is complicated. Growing spiritually is time-consuming. We believe that the Episcopal Church is a great place to engage our minds, our hearts, our souls, and our actions.

Community Forum

We developed our after-worship Community Forum to help us grow spiritually. It's also one of the ways we grow together. Whether we're sharing the passion of one of our members, learning from contacts outside of our parish, or taking time to listen to each other, Community Forum draws us into a common learning experience.

Please consider staying with us following our 10AM Sunday worship. Let's grow!

Education for Ministry (EfM)

Education for Ministry is coming back!

Starting Monday mornings in November 2023 we will be offering the Episcopal program
Education for Ministry (EfM). In this small-group, weekly learning experience, you’ll dive deep into the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures, church history, and Christian theology. It’s a 36 week program broken into 4 years. Please contact Danielle McCoy, Children and Youth Ministry Associate, children@st-lukes.net or Kathy Monson Lutes kathymonsonlutes@gmail.com

Another option is an online EfM group with members from several MN parishes (including Grace!), as well as a member in another state and one in another country. It meets Monday nights from 6:30-8:30 pm via Google Meet. This group has already begun meeting but welcomes new members.

Youth Formation

Grace is a place where youth can show up as their true selves. Grace is a place where youth can be part of all that our faith community has to offer. Our youth are invited to share their gifts in worship by becoming acolytes, readers, ushers/greeters. Youth are invited to participate in the many ways we serve our neighbors and community. We also encourage everyone to participate in our intergenerational formation opportunities. As we are able, we are expanding our offerings and opportunities that are youth specific. We do participate in opportunities and experiences that are co-created by many of our faith communities through the Episcopal Church in Minnesota.

Flyers of ECMN events are also posted on our Community/Events bulletin board. For more information about retreats, camps, and regional gatherings and current Grace youth offerings please contact Sheila Foster, Director of Community Involvement. See our
Worship page for details about Sunday morning opportunities for youth.

The Episcopal Church

We Episcopalians believe in a loving, liberating, and life-giving God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As constituent members of the Anglican Communion in the United States, we are descendants of and partners with the Church of England and the Scottish Episcopal Church, and are part of the third largest group of Christians in the world.

We believe in following the teachings of Jesus Christ, whose life, death, and resurrection saved the world.

We have a legacy of inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human being; women and men serve as bishops, priests, and deacons in our church. Laypeople and clergy cooperate as leaders at all levels of our church. Leadership is a gift from God, and can be expressed by all people in our church, regardless of sexual identity or orientation.

We believe that God loves you – no exceptions.
