Here is Bishop Curry's message inviting young adults to discern a call to serve.  

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.
