Welcome to Central MN Churches

REAL PEOPLE! REAL GOD! REAL RELATIONSHIPS!

The Spirit of the Heartland is a cluster of three Episcopal churches in Central Minnesota where all baptized members minister together in Total Ministry. Congregation members are raised up, trained, commissioned, licensed and/or ordained and serve as a team in the ministerial leadership roles traditionally filled by a seminary-trained priest. Parish ministers continue to serve in Lay Ministry roles. All team members serve in all Spirit of the Heartland congregations. We are REAL people living out our faith in an authentic community with relevant preaching for daily living in the 21st century!

All gifts for ministry are recognized in our three parishes. Please visit us any Sunday and experience an intimate and inspirational worship service. In an ever increasing era of impersonalization and overwhelming technology, consider the value of being a contributing part of the Body of Christ where others know your name and they really care about YOU! If you are shopping around for a new church home, please come and see what awaits YOU in the Episcopal Church! You will be surprised and uplifted to see a group of Christians living out the Gospel and truly committed to a new life in Jesus Christ!
