The Bishop's Circle was established in 2005 to demonstrate that we can approach matters of stewardship and support for mission out of a sense of abundance, not scarcity.
Episcopalians in the Diocese of Minnesota are blessed to be part of a legacy of commitment, courage and generosity that defines a collective heritage and spirit. This legacy was established by dedicated forebears who used their treasure to create a strong spiritual and financial foundation for the Diocese of Minnesota.
The Bishop's Circle celebrates that legacy of abundance, joy and pride in our Episcopal tradition. Members of the Circle join with the Bishop as ambassadors of passionate generosity, serving as an inspiration to others through their expression of financial support in building the church of tomorrow.
Gifts to the Bishop's Circle are typically given in conjunction with the annual banquets, but are welcome at any time. Donors of $500 or more are considered members of The Bishop's Circle. Gifts of other amounts are received during the year-end appeal.
