Hey there! We're so glad you're checking out the Fabric channel. In the summer, we meet at the Minnehaha Falls Bandshell in Minneapolis at 10:30 on most Summer Sundays. Check our Events Calendar for the latest.
Because the internet connection in the park hasn't been super strong or cooperative, we'll be recording our gatherings and uploading them afterwards from now through Labor Day. Be sure to catch us sometime on Sunday afternoons!
Flourishing Forward
In a world that often feels stuck or splintered, what if we could imagine new ways of being together; ways that help all of us flourish? For two weeks at the Minnehaha Falls Bandstand, we’ll explore how reimagining spaces, relationships, and systems might create deeper belonging, equity, and healing in our neighborhoods. From placemaking to purpose, and from lament to possibility, we’ll hear stories of innovation rooted in love of neighbor, and reflect on how we each might become part of the collective work of flourishing forward.
Sunday, August 17 | Perpetual Community Assets - If we’re going to talk about flourishing, it only makes sense that we’d talk to our partners from Flourish Placemaking Collective, who owns the Center of Belonging (where Fabric’s offices are located!). Come be a part of the conversation with Tabitha Montgomery and Tim Anderson, whose vision for neighborhood flourishing is worth participating in! PODCAST | SUNDAY PAPER | GROUP GUIDE
Sunday, August 24 | How to Flourish - A vision for human flourishing is all fine and good, but how do we get there? We’re going to spend some time talking about “social innovation” as we imagine participating in what we often call “God’s big vision of love”-- what Jesus more often called the “Kingdom of God.” What is social innovation, and how might we apply those ideas to our own relationships, workplaces, neighborhoods, and families?

I love this opportunity to combine an incredible Vampire movie set in 1930s Mississippi Delta, historical and spiritual context and a dinner table of people to process and learn with!
