Welcome

You're Invited to the Queer Prom: Friday June 16
No matter who you love, you are invited to this free, intergenerational, and substance-free event celebrating queer and trans lives and experiences. Join us for a night of music, dancing, and fabulousness! Friday, June 16 at SpringHouse Ministry (610 W 28th St, Mpls. 55408) from 7–10p. Enjoy a family-friendly Iowa Drag Queen group, DJ, and photobooth, childcare available for young children. A free-will offering will support Iowa Safe Schools. We believe that this event will provide a safe space for all to come together and create community. If you are interested in volunteering, or have any questions, contact Chelsea Boyden at [email protected]
Join our Community Group
We are starting a new group that will be focused on prayerfully supporting each other and building community. We will use a simple model we have used before. In addition to an opening and closing, the meeting consists of folks sharing whatever they wish to share about their lives. Each person’s sharing is followed by silence and group response to that person. The group will be led by Jane and will begin in early June. We will meet during the summer months, likely every other week. The day/time of the meeting and whether it is virtual or in-person will depend on the preferences and needs of the group. At the end of the summer, the group will decide whether or not to continue meeting. Please let Jane McBride know if you are interested!
