Join us for a celebration with Mississippi River! Together, we will connect, learn, pray, engage, play, celebrate, and honor the spirit of water. This year’s event will take place over two days.
On July 25, we will meet at United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities from 3:00–8:00 PM CT for an educational afternoon and evening. United students will present projects from an eco-justice class in the afternoon from 3:00–5:30 PM. Then, in the evening, we will present a guest speaker from 7:00–8:00 PM.
Now in its third year, this event is designed to highlight the care and responsibility involved in protecting and sharing valuable water resources, like Mississippi River. Too often, infrastructure and institutions hide our water resources. Our focus centers on themes of gratitude, celebration, unity, coming together, the commonality of water as a presence in our life, reverence, respect, and honor for our water and all that is sacred.
