The Northeastern Minnesota Synod ELCA is a Reconciling in Christ synod committed to the inclusive hospitality of God which welcomes all people into the work of the church to proclaim Christ, serve the neighbor, and strive for justice and peace in the world. We embody this hospitality in our life together as synod through unapologetic welcome and affirmation of people of all sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, races and ethnicities, ages and abilities, and socio-economic or citizenship statuses. We embrace the calling to work for welcome and reconciliation through our commitment to anti-racism and inclusion.
