First Congregational Church of Minnesota, United Church of Christ, is an open, inclusive congregation welcoming and affirming people of all races, cultures, and sexual orientations. Our commitments embrace the use of inclusive language and imagery in worship. We are a Just Peace church, actively exploring and promoting peace and justice in accordance with Christian tradition.

Some of us rush through our days, frantic, and fragmented, struggling to balance all our competing priorities.  For others, time creeps at a glacial pace, bringing boredom and accentuating grief or loneliness.  This summer we invite you to explore with us the spiritual practice of receiving time as a gift from God.

Find rest and renewal in worship
Our 10 am summer worship includes lectio divina, a meditative reading of scripture, stations for reflection that engage the senses, and the opportunity for healing prayer.

We are using this space to explore the meaning of Sabbath—meditating on each week’s worship themes, posting sermons, and offering personal reflections. Watch for new reflections each Tuesday.

Add a book to your summer reading list
We are reading Receiving the Day: Christian Practices of Opening the Gift of Time, by Dorothy Bass.
