We welcome immigrants and refugees

With a long history of accompanying immigrants and refugees, we became a Sanctuary Church in 2017. Led by the Immigrant Welcoming Team, we support new Minnesotans by providing temporary housing, food and other forms of immediate assistance as they transition towards independence.

We feed the hungry

Many people struggle every day to feed themselves and their families. Through partnerships with the Hallie Q. Brown Community Center, Loaves and Fishes, and Interfaith Action’s Department of Indian Work, we feed our neighbors and advocate for an end to hunger.

Climate Justice at MPUC

Led by our Creation Justice Committee, we did a lot of work to reduce our church’s carbon footprint, educating the congregation about environmental stewardship and working for political solutions for the climate crisis. In 2022, we installed a solar array on our roof.
