THE ECC COMMUNTIES OF
THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGION
St. Paul Denver ECC is one of 5 ECC churches in Colorado.
While each community is autonomous, we covenant together as the local church
under the leadership of our Rocky Mountain Regional Council
made up of lay and clergy representatives of our respective communities,
our elected local Bishop Kae Madden
and our Vicar of Ecumenical Engagement Fr. Michael Nicosia.
The voice of the Spirit within our communities guides
our holy conversations and consensus decision-making.
Fr. Don Sutton and Liz Begalla serve on the RMR Board representing St. Paul Denver ECC,
While Fr. Michael, as regional vicar, is an ex-officio member.

The Rocky Mountain Region of the ECC is a covenanting member of the
COLORADO COUNCIL OF CHURCHES
Walking together in faith, working together for justice is the mission of
our covenanting denominations, congregations and affiliated partners
as they come together to be the Colorado Council of Churches (CCC).
Together the member denominations of the Colorado Council of Churches can be a clearer voice and stronger witness for justice for all of God’s children than any one denomination can be by itself.
Our ECC Region's Bishop Kae Madden serves on the CCC Judicator Board, while our Vicar of Ecumenical Engagement, Fr. Michael Nicosia, is on the CCC Board of Directors.
SOCIAL JUSTICE ADVOCACY AT THE STATE CAPITAL. In its fourth year, “Faithful Thursdays” is a diverse coalition of leaders, organizations and community members who are committed to adding a deeper, moral dimension to the public policy-making process in Colorado. Our focus is to advance a faith narrative and collaborative process that supports a just economy, promotes equity, and eradicates racism in Colorado.
We will hold opening and closing multi-faith events, with some possible intermittent programming during each session of the Colorado General Assembly. www.cochurches.org


In 2021 we began worshipping at 6th and Adams
in the Capital Hill district of Denver,
welcomed by 6thAveUCC www.sixthavenueucc.org.
Still committed to being "in the city of good",
we were attracted to how active their community
is in both outreach to the surrounding
neighborhood and advocacy work with the same
social justice partners that we already had a
relationship with to extend our mission in the world.
We soon discovered that Pastor Chris Gilmore and the UCC community also have a passion for ecumenism,
and began worshipping together for various feasts and ritual celebrations, e.g., Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, a blessing of animals, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
SIXTH AVENUE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST

We are proud to partner with
CAPITOL HILL UNITED MINISTRIES
& WOMEN'S HOMELESSNESS INITIATIVE www.chumdenver.org
The mission of Capitol Hill United Ministries (CHUM) is to be a spiritual presence and resource in the inner city of Denver, to practice hospitality, to advocate for our neighbors in need, and to strengthen and sustain our member communities, particularly through effective communication and cooperation, enhancing the ministry of all.
The Women's Homelessness Initiative is a consortium of faith-based organization working together to give sanctuary and hospitality every night to women who would be on our streets. What WHI offers is a chance to have these women – our women – be known, heard and cared for with compassion, dignity, respect and presence of heart.
StP regularly disseminates Diana Flahive's newsletters, letting us know of the needs of the week.

COLORADO FAITH COMMUNITIES UNITED
TO END GUN VIOLENCE & COLORADO CEASEFIRE
Colorado Faith Communities United to End Gun Violence (CFCU) is the only faith-based organization in Colorado dedicated to ending gun violence. As diverse faith communities, we work to reduce injuries, deaths, and the resulting grief caused by the improper use of firearms — whether suicidal, accidental, or criminal. We work together in areas where we can be most effective, including legislative advocacy, public health initiatives, public awareness, and increased engagement of our faith communities. www.cfcu-co.org
Colorado Ceasefire is the longest serving statewide, grassroots gun violence prevention organization in the State of Colorado. We are parents, teachers, students, community members, gun violence survivors and more who have been working for nearly twenty years to prevent and reduce gun violence in Colorado through education, outreach and legislative advocacy. Our efforts are making a difference.
