As Pride month begins, save the date for a gathering commemorating the 50th anniversary of the 1976 General Convention resolution declaring that LGBTQ+ people have a full and equal claim to the pastoral care and support of The Episcopal Church. The event, “Full and Equal: 50 Years in Pursuit of a Promise,” will celebrate progress and acknowledge the work that remains.

The three-day gathering, held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Sept. 3-5, will include storytelling coaching, workshops, a banquet, and a Eucharist featuring Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe as presider and Bishop Gene Robinson as preacher. Spanish-language interpretation will be available.

More registration details will follow. Please save the date and help spread the word.

The Holy Trinity reminds us that relationship is woven into the very nature of God.

As Creator, God brings life into being. As Savior, God draws near in love and redemption. As Comforter, God remains present, guiding and sustaining us through every season.

At the heart of the Trinity is a relationship of love, shared, given, and received. Created in the image of this relational God, we are called to live in community, practice radical welcome, and care for one another as Christ cares for us.

On this Trinity Sunday, may we give thanks for the mystery of a God who creates, saves, comforts, and continually invites us into deeper relationship with God and one another.

YOUTH CAMP REGISTRATION BLITZ!

One of the highlights of last summer was the Youth Camp registration blitz, and the subsequent results. As you might recall, the challenge that was issued (to inspire registration) was that if a certain number of students registered by a specific date, various camp leaders would be required to dye their hair for summer camp.
In 2025, the goals were:
20 Students - Anna Belz-Brock (Youth Camp Coordinator) dyes her hair pink
30 Students - I, Dan Miglets-Nelson would dye my hair blue
40 Students - Rt. Rev. Craig W. Loya dyes his hair purple

By the deadline we had set, Anna and Dan were to fall "victim" to this, and in good spirits showed up to camp with colorful hair.

Unfortunately, we did not hit the goal of 40 students by the deadline set for the Bishop to have to dye his hair. But, we did hit that number, just not by the date, so Bishop Loya, being a good sport, dawned on a bright purple, Anime-style wig for the final evening of camp. While it was not a true shade of "bishop purple,” it was indeed a sight to behold!

This summer, we are setting down a similar, and larger challenge.
ECMN Youth Camp Registration blitz is underway!

Here are the rewards (if met by June 7).
25 students - Gabby Bizal (Youth Camp Associate) will be pied in the face by one lucky camper, determined by lottery
40 students - Dan Miglets-Nelson, will be "duct-taped" to the wall as a part of camp
55 students - Anna Belz-Brock (Youth Camp Coordinator) will let students dye her hair as part of camp
(Bishop Loya is on sabbatical, and will therefore not be part of this year's challenge)

Registration is open now! Ample Scholarships are available. Sign up today!
