Dear Sister or Brother in Christ,

We are so grateful that you have found us on the web, or even landed upon us by accident.  Our parish family walks together in the journey of faith and are seekers and travelers together, united in Christ Jesus our Lord.  We are proud members of the Episcopal Church and the Episcopal Diocese of South Dakota.  We are stewards of a beautiful church and campus that is a holy place because it is our family home where we gather together regularly and celebrate the liturgy that binds us together in prayer and gives us the strength and the grace to be faithful to the commission Christ gave us in the Gospel according to St. Matthew: "Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" (Matt 28:19).  We welcome you with open heart and doors, and proclaim that all are welcome in this church.   If you are seeking, or doubting, or not sure about any of this religion stuff, our parish family extends their hands of love and welcome to you to join us, and walk with us as we make our way to God.  We are servants, both of God and each other, and strive to recognize God-made-human in the eyes and heart of every person, whether rich or poor or homeless or hurting or despairing or devout or just beginning.   It is through others that God most often works wonderful and miraculous things.  We celebrate the sacraments of the church, which are signs of God's infinite love, grace, and mercy, and point us toward a deeper and fuller relationship with Jesus Christ.  We are all the holy people of God because we were each loved into being and made in the image and likeness of God.  No one is unworthy or too sinful to be loved or cherished by God, ever!  We, too, are sinners in the need of forgiveness and grace and mercy, of which there is an inexhaustible amount from the heart of Jesus.  Come, walk with us!  You are welcome!   

   

Peace and all good!
