WHO WE ARE

TOGETHER HERE MINISTRIES prepares congregations in Northeastern Minnesota Synod to engage in the process of learning, listening and relationship building grounded in truth-telling and the reconciling love of Christ so that transformational change is possible and healing can occur between diverse groups of people. 

​

Together Here consists of an Advisory Board and two ministry teams: The Bridge Building Task Force and the Racial Justice Team. Both teams assist in creating space for healthy conversation and learning to occur, whether in person or digitally.  We work with pastors and church leaders, civic leaders, and private employers in a variety of settings, including congregational settings, schools, and government departments.  We lead book studies, confirmation classes, cultural sensitivity training, and workshops. 

Advisory Board

The Advisory Board works to set the mission and vision of Together Here Ministries by carefully discerning an annual strategy, aligning the budget to meet the needs outlined in this strategy and accessing the successful implementation of the strategy.

The Bridge Building Task Force

The Bridge Building Task Force accompanies congregations in Northeastern Minnesota Synod as we work to repair breached trust between Indigenous peoples and descendants of settler communities.

Racial Justice Team

The Racial Justice Team accompanies ministries sand congregations in Northeastern Minnesota Synod as we work to form and re-form systems that celebrate, honor, and reflect the vast diversity of God's creation expressed through humanity.

"...what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God" (Micah 6:8)
