Last week, we were joined by panelist Jen Kilps, Network Executive of the Minnesota Multifaith Network (MnMN), who invited the Luther community to join her at a special post-election event. Tickets are almost sold out, so register today! Whatever the outcome of Election Day 2024, the Minnesota Multifaith Network believes that the work of healing and building just communities is needed now more than ever. This year’s convening—A Call for Justice and Healing: The Role of Minnesota’s Multifaith Community in Times of Division, Distrust, and Trauma—invites us to confront the deep divisions being experienced today. We know those divisions are creating pervasive distrust and causing great trauma. In the midst of such painful realities, we believe that within our various religious and spiritual communities lie wisdom, experiences, and practices that can contribute to healing and the work of justice. Join us at the Hindu Temple of Minnesota as we explore ways in which different faith traditions can come together to promote justice and healing.
