What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his garden, and it grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air made nests in its branches.

Luke 13:18-19

A mustard tree

 

As a tiny mustard seed grows into a large tree,

Episcopal Ministries envisions a world where powerful local ministries work together to welcome the Kingdom of Heaven in our midst.

By resourcing, nurturing, and amplifying ministries.

Across the diocese, Episcopal Ministries brings forth loving, liberating, and life-giving relationships with God, each other, and our shared sacred earth.
