The red doors of Holy Apostles Episcopal Church swing open, inviting you into a sanctuary brimming with life. Standing here, you quickly realize this is no ordinary church; it’s a vibrant community hub. Today, the church is a majority Hmong congregation, but it also welcomes people from diverse backgrounds, making it a truly multi-cultural space. This unique story began in 2004. Holy Apostles was facing closure due to declining membership. Then, 70 Hmong families, seeking a new home, found their way to the church. The big red doors opened wide, welcoming them with open arms. In the years that followed, Holy Apostles Episcopal Church blossomed. The church adapted to its new community’s needs, translating the Book of Common Prayer into Hmong. Now, the church is a testament to the power of community, faith, and inclusivity. The sanctuary is a testament to their faith journey, showcasing rich cultural traditions and a shared commitment to seeking and serving God and their community.
