We are excited to have Deacon Colleen Bernu, who serves as the director for evangelical mission and synod minister for diversity, equity and inclusion, to share about the challenges and her work as part of the Northeast Minnesota synod. She has been a key leader in the work of “Together Here.” She also serves as the on the ELCA Repudiation of the Doctrine of Discovery task force.
We are also excited to have lay leader Pat Branstad, from First Lutheran Church in St. James, Minnesota, to share about the challenges and work in St. James to build a better future for all the people who call it home through Uniting Cultures.
They will share some thoughts and conversation with us. If you join us in person, bring your own lunch and drinks. The Zoom link will be included in the community announcements email.
