We worship at Faith Mennonite Church, in the Seward neighborhood of Minneapolis, and seek to partner with like-minded communities of faith.

aspirations that help describe us:

- An ecumenical, Christian community that worships regularly together with spirited liturgies that employ good music and inclusive language
- Decision making by consensus
- A commitment to outward expression of peacemaking and justice seeking
- An intention to share a common life through worship
- Enabling one another to use individuals’ diverse gifts
- A commitment to inward spiritual journeys through solitude, study, prayer and spiritual direction
- Shared leadership and responsibilities
- Open and affirming, celebrating the diversity of all creation
