The Mount Olivet Racial Equity (M.O.R.E.) Team exists to lead and engage our community in joining God’s work of undoing racism and building equity. As we do personal intercultural development, our team focuses on two goals.

Goal One: Motivate and grow capacity with the congregation for curiosity and compassion.
Goal Two: Work towards systemic change locally.

UPCOMING EVENTS

12:15 PM 6:00 PM

Mount Olivet Lutheran Church of Plymouth

This tour offers a rare opportunity to learn about Minnesota history from a Native perspective through story-telling and experiencing sacred sites of the Dakota people in silence/meditation/reflection. The intent of this time is to create greater awareness and understanding of the Dakota people, the original people of this area, who too often are invisible in their homeland. The teaching includes information on Dakota history, culture and sacred sites, as well as the oppression and genocide they faced, and ultimately their exile from Minnesota.

Time: Please gather at Mount Olivet by 12:15p.m. We will load up and depart the church by 12:30p.m.The tour itself is roughly 4 hours and we aim to be back before 6:00p.m.

Audience: The tour content isn't appropriate for young children. Older youth under 18 are encouraged to attend, but must be accompanied by a legal guardian.

This Event is Free & transportation will be provided from the church for the event.
