Episcopal Exchange
A place to share resources, events, stories of our lives together in mission.
During the month of February, St. John the Evangelist will provide homeless families with a place to sleep, snacks and hosts with compassion for their present situation.
We need four volunteers each day to help provide these services—two evening volunteers from 5:30-8:30 pm and two overnight volunteers from 8:30 pm-7:30 am. Training will be available.

When a child enters the world with Down syndrome, his or her parents face challenging questions. Will my baby have medical issues? Will people accept my child? What is possible for my son or daughter as they grow? If you are the parent of a child with Down syndrome, a hearty welcome to a large and caring community. There are thousands of us all around you – perhaps as many as 3,000 in just the upper Midwest and well more than a million nationwide. We have all been just where you are today…

We are so grateful for the treasure that you all and our neighbors poured into our fundraising mission to get fresh produce to those who would not otherwise afford it. We raised almost twice our goal of $1,500! When added to the matching grant, we were able to increase our truck deliveries to twice a week at the Hallie Q Brown Community Center Food Shelf. It is an amazing accomplishment. Thank you one and all! We will be closing our market on October 12. So, stock up for canning and…

We're commissioning two small windows. But we don't have an artist. Anyone have experience? Or is there an Angie's List for church furnishings?

What a great way to spend a Friday night—with faith and fellowship. St. George's Episcopal Church invites you to Holy Eucharist and fellowship at 7 p.m. Friday, November 1, for the Feast of All Saints. The Feast of All Saints is a major festival of the Christian year. It is on par with Christmas and Easter. We will remember all the heroes of our faith who have gone onto their glory and our loved ones who have done the same. We will then feast on dessert after the service. St. George's is…

Saint Paul’s letters (Epistles) make up large portion of the New Testament. We read from his letters often at the Holy Eucharist. Who was Saint Paul? Who was he writing these letters to? How have his writings influenced Christian theology?

It is with tremendous pride that I can now say, after celebrating this afternoon, that I was the Senior Warden when St. James Episcopal Church on the Parkway in Minneapolis, and that I was there, when St. James recorded the first same-sex marriage in its 80 year history. Its true, as a Senior Warden, my offcial role in such an event is non-existent. The formal approval of the Vestry isn't needed, there is no mechanism in place that I am aware of for the Wardens and/or Vestry to somehow weigh…

So, our buildings on the St. James Episcopal Church on the Parkway have been vexing us for nearly a decade now, in small and big ways, while simultaneously endearing us as the home base of our faith and sprititual work. This hardly makes St. James unique of course, but I thought it still a worthy blog topic,even if I am ultimately only talking to myself (see previous post from June). There have been a wide range of conversations at St. James, from simple musings of humble parishioners to…
