CLIMATE JUSTICE GREEN TEAM
Our Climate Justice Green Team is dedicated to caring for God's creation and advocating for environmental justice. We're proud to announce that we've successfully met the requirements to become a Certified Climate Justice Congregation for 2025 through Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light! We're one of many Minnesota churches making a difference by reducing carbon emissions, promoting recycling, and advocating for policies that protect our planet and support communities on the front lines of pollution.
We're actively involved in a variety of initiatives:

MISSIONS TEAM
Our mission is simple and powerful: to serve our neighbors—whether they are local, national, or international—by following God's greatest commandment to love one another. We believe that this call to love is an active one, and we live it out through a variety of ministries and actions.
In our local community, we are the hands and feet of Christ, partnering with organizations like CEAP, the shoe bus, and Loaves & Fishes to meet immediate needs and build relationships right here at home. These partnerships allow us to provide food, clothing, and essential support to those in our neighborhood who need it most.
Our commitment extends beyond our local area. We organize domestic and international mission trips, sending teams to serve communities and share God's love in tangible ways. Additionally, we lead collections of money and goods to support people both near and far, responding to natural disasters, poverty, and other urgent needs.
Finally, we believe that prayer is a cornerstone of our mission. We are dedicated to praying for all in the world who are in need, lifting up those we have served, those we hope to serve, and those whose struggles we may never know. Through these acts of service, we strive to be a light in the world, embodying the love and compassion that is central to our faith.
BACK TO SCHOOL DRIVE
Each year, our African Women's Society helps local students prepare for the new school year. In 2025, the society collected and distributed over 200 backpacks filled with essential school supplies for children of all ages. This initiative is a testament to our church's commitment to supporting the community and empowering the next generation.
