Forum (9:30am)
AICHO
Today, we will hear from AICHO (American Indian Community Housing Organization, our woven basket recipient for the month of October. AICHO transforms oppression into opportunity. Created in 1993, AICHO started in a parking lot outside a social service agency with a conversation among Native community members. They asked why our community had no resources, no community spaces and no services that met their cultural needs. AICHO was created as an Indigenous response to social conditions in Duluth, MN, powered by the urban Native American community. Find out more: https://www.aicho.org

We are Diverse Thinkers
We need not think alike to love alike. We are people of many beliefs and backgrounds: people with a religious background, people with none, people who believe in a God, people who don’t, and people who just let the mystery be. We seek to welcome you just as you are: your whole self, with all your truths and your doubts, your fears and your hopes.
We Support Each Other
From infancy to old age, we support each other’s paths as we seek to live lives of integrity, compassion, commitment, and joy. We help each other learn and grow as we explore our faiths, our identities, and our world.
We Act for Justice
We have a legacy of “deeds not creeds.” Our work for a better world calls us to harness love’s power to stop oppression. From grassroots community organizing to state, national, and corporate advocacy; in protest marches, prayer vigils, and press conferences; in homeless shelters and in prisons, we are called to put our faith into action.
We Serve
Service is at the core of our faith. We are called to make a positive difference in the world. We partner with, and advocate for, people and organizations in need of support. We live our values out loud.
