Vision
While going with Jesus, we choose presence, pursue Christ-like connections, work with excellence, and HELP people at the intersect of their story, God’s story, and our story.
back story
When the apostle Paul left Athens for the city of Corinth in Acts 18, he met a Jewish couple named Aquila and Priscilla. They relocated to Corinth because of Emperor Claudias’ order for all Jews to leave Rome. When Paul learned Aquila and his wife were tentmakers like himself, he accepted their invitation to live and work together. Through their business partnership Paul was able to support himself as an apostle, help his new friends become disciples of Jesus, minister in the synagogue, and teach God’s word for a year and a half in Corinth.
Based on Paul’s example, MN Tent Makers are committed to bringing Jesus to the people who do not attend church by showing up where they live, work, learn, and play. Through mingling, hospitality, relational presence, finding shared purposes, engaging in meaningful conversations, listening, story telling, and Bible reading we help the people we live and work with embrace their calling in Christ.
