The Kineo Center is excited to announce a partnership w/ the PCUSA.
The PCUSA is giving EVERY Denomonational Pastor $5000 towards the 'Pain & Possibilities' Retreat in Puerto Rico.
It is a life-renovating, soul-healing experience for emotional, spiritual, and vocational health.

We do not build the kingdom of God on earth by our own efforts (however assisted by grace); the most we can do, through genuine prayer, is to make as much room as possible, in ourselves and in the world, for the kingdom of God, so that its energies can go to work.

Since working with @DoughnutEcon as a framework, we’ve been looking at how to build the infrastructure, to unlock, build towards, connect, reveal, the direction towards safe + just futures at a neighbourhood scale, here’s how one small part of that looks @CIVIC_SQUARE, and across partners local and national 💚
There are loads of classes coming up, if you are feeling grief, fear, sadness about where the national picture is, come and join us in a practical hands on spaces to build practically, share skills, grow our collective solidarity, unlock our own agency + organise together ways forward.
