Circle is in our 6th year of serving young adults and the community and we invite you to join us as we work to be one with our neighbors. Our young adults this year are working through local congregations, media outlets and directly with the children in the North Minneapolis neighborhoods.
Your contribution to our work truly equals 'kinship across lines of difference.'  

Kinship
​Instead of operating from a benefactor paradigm of “us” helping “them”, we acknowledge our innate kinship, where all sides give and receive based on our mutual gifts and needs. 
Rule of Life
​​We will craft a rule of life together that encourages holy listening and prayer, simplicity, a ministry of presence, and active justice-making in our neighborhoods.
​Reconciliation
​We will embark on a journey of racial, socioeconomic, and spiritual reconciliation, grounded in following the way of Jesus.
​
“Merciful​ ​God,​ ​you​ ​guide​ ​us​ ​each ​​day​ ​by​ ​your​ ​grace​ ​and​ ​call​ ​us​ ​to​ ​create​ ​communities​ ​of​ ​faith,​ ​hope,​ ​and​ ​love​ ​in your​ ​name:​ ​Bless​ ​and​ ​uphold​ ​the​​ ministry​ ​of​ the Episcopal​ ​Service​ ​Corps,​ ​especially Circle of the Beloved​ ​in North Minneapolis, that​ ​we​ ​may​ ​do​ ​the​ ​work​ ​that​ ​you​​ have​ ​given​ ​us​ ​to​ ​do,​ ​creating​ ​holy​ ​space​ ​in​ ​our​​ communities​ ​for​ ​service, prayer,​ ​justice,​ ​and​ ​fellowship​ ​to​ ​your​​ honor​ ​and​ ​glory​ ​and​ ​the​ ​coming​ ​of​ ​your​ ​holy​ ​kingdom;​​ through​ ​Jesus Christ​ ​our​ ​Lord,​ ​who​ ​lives​ ​and​ ​reigns​ ​with​​ you​ ​and​ ​the​ ​Holy​ ​Spirit,​ one God, now and forever. Amen.
