Whether you are cradle, committed, recovering, seeking, skeptical, questioning or just attending with your mom because she asked you to… you are welcome in the Episcopal Churches of North Dakota. We live in cities and suburbs and small towns and rural spaces. We worship in churches that smell like incense and freshly mown hay. We might wear our Sunday best, our Carharts or rainbow tee shirts, and our priests generally dress like upholstered chairs. Our services are ancient, relevant, powerful and sometimes hard to follow (which is why we will greet you warmly and offer to sit with you and guide you through the first time). We look like everyone who has ever lived in North Dakota and speak Arabic, Dinka, Ojibwa, Lakota and English. We are beloved children of God,and so are you. We invite you to scroll through this website, click on the links to our other pages, find a church that meets near you or meets your needs and come on in. Thousands of people across our state find solace, meaning, community and love in the Episcopal Church, we think you will, too.
ABOUT US
The Kitty to the Ordinary: Squirrel Nutkin
Squirrel Nutkin, formerly “Pea,” serves as Kitty to the Ordinary for Bishop Shay. She strictly keeps the bishop on schedule, holds down/obscures items which were thoughtlessly placed on the “reserved for SN” section of the desk, and makes occasional appearances on Zoom meetings. Rescued from TreeHouse for Cats in 2016, Nutkin is probably 11 years old, was likely stray and is definitely a calico cat.
