Charis Community

Charis Community The first Ecumenical Catholic Church in Minnesota, Charis is an open, thinking, healing, welcoming... There's place for everyone at our table, no exceptions.

Charis is a vibrant praying community of the Ecumenical Catholic Communion. We gather for prayer every week on Sunday mornings at 11 a.m. CT via Zoom and in person See our website for the Zoom link, readings and worship aid: www.charisecc.org

Ecumenical Catholicism is one of many expressions of the ancient, undivided and apostolic Catholic faith where the clergy marry, women are ordained, and t

he Sacraments are available to persons of all orientations! Our community is justice-focused, sacramentally inclusive of all, flexible in guidelines for the Mass and other prayers, and democratic in our leadership at all levels. Join us if you're a believer, a hyphenated Catholic, a questioner, a challenger, a skeptic. Wherever you are on your journey, know that you are wanted and welcome at Charis, the first Ecumenical Catholic Community in Minnesota. Charis Ecumenical Catholic Community is incorporated under the name Ecumenical Catholic Communion of the Twin Cities.

"The D.C. rally was Trump's version of branding a religion. He doesn't care a whit about theological considerations, historical data or constitutional obstacles. He needs a religion that won't bother him with any of the ethical and moral annoyances that other religious leaders keep raising.
