Minnesota Council of Churches

Reweaving Minnesota’s Common Life

Dear friend, 

As the CEO of the Minnesota Council of Churches, I’m honored to lead this community of faith as we approach 80 years of ministry. Our call to “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God” (Micah 6:8) has never been more urgent.

For decades, MCC has welcomed refugees, advanced racial justice, and built bridges across difference. But today, our greatest challenge is polarization—a growing public health crisis that divides families, congregations, and communities.

We believe the Church can lead healing. MCC is equipping pastors and congregations statewide to become bridge-builders—people who foster belonging, listen courageously, and model love over fear.

Your gift today will:

• Train faith leaders to resist division and nurture belonging.
• Convene Minnesotans across race, geography, and belief for honest dialogue.
• Sustain MCC’s decades-long ministry with refugees, immigrants, and communities of color.

This Give to the Max Day, your support will help MCC reweave the fabric of hope and connection across our state. Together, we can shape what Dr. King called the Beloved Community—right here in Minnesota.

🙏 Join us today at GiveMN.org/MCC

 

With gratitude and hope,

 

Suzanne P. Kelly

Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
