Mission Statement: to collaborate with area churches in areas of common good.
Chair: OPEN
This past year has been an eventful one for the Ecumenism Commission!
Our diocese requires us to have an Ecumenism Commission – yet some don’t even know how to pronounce it! (uh·kyoo·muh·ni·zm, if you need a little help!) This commission focuses on collaborating with other churches in areas of common good. When churches work together, our community benefits. Yet, doing this in our area has taken some quiet and steady efforts from this team.
This small group has accomplished BIG things!
Starting with supporting the First Responder Prayer service, this group has had a regular schedule of activities last year. You may have seen their booth at the Volunteer Fair. Or maybe you attended the Veterans Day Prayer service. (Did you know we had 5 other churches collaborate with us?) Or maybe you attended the amazing Vigil Project evening of music and adoration. (That was a WOW moment!)
This group is looking for new members. If you have a knack for connecting with people in the community or would like to work with building relationships with other churches, please contact:

We were blessed to host The Vigil Project at St. Therese for a True Presence night. To learn more about them and to hear some of their beautiful worship music:
