Overview

Reformed/conservative Protestant congregation in the Twin Cities (Minnesota). Publishes a public leadership roster listing deacons, deaconesses, and staff. May be connected to broader Minneapolis-area religious-right networks relevant to “The Pastor Runs the Gestapo” and related reporting on the local pastoral-political ecosystem. The fetched snapshot of the leadership page does not include pastoral or elder leadership — only support staff — which is an intentional or accidental disclosure gap worth following up on.
