Church of the Epiphany History

In the 1950’s, the Twin Cities metro area was growing fast in the post-war baby boom. More suburbs were popping up around Minneapolis, and there was a great need for the Episcopal Church to reach out to the residents in such places as Crystal, New Hope and Plymouth.

The congregation of St. Andrew’s in North Minneapolis approved sponsoring the start of a new Mission in the western suburbs, and The Church of The Epiphany was born.

Giving Garden

Our Giving Garden donates fresh produce to NEAR, a local food shelf.  We typically donate close to a thousand pounds of food per year to people who do not often get a chance to have fresh produce.  If you like casual gardening and conversation with friends what could make you happier than working in our Giving Garden.
