Circle is about to welcome our 6th cohort of young adults who will be serving in and around our North Minneapolis neighborhoods. In keeping with our mission of building 'kinship across lines of difference,' please watch this TPT special and realize our similarities are much stronger than our differences! 

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.
