Charis Ecumenical Catholic Community

Progressive? Christian? Like ritual? Good preaching? Community? Less interested in dogma and doctrine than finding meaning and being of service? Consider Charis, the first Ecumenical Catholic Community in Minnesota. We are completely inclusive of all people -- no one is less equal or important. "We are men and women, baptized in Christ. We are laity and ordained. We join together at the messianic call of the Spirit to form the household of faith; to preach the Gospel of liberation and justice for the poor, the outcast, the sick, the disabled, the old, the young, and the imprisoned; to offer a refuge in Christ for those who suffer prejudice because of race, color, culture, philosophy, gender, sexual orientation or educational deprivation; to conform our lives to the life and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ through prayer and study, service, and the celebration of the liturgy and the sacraments."
