Minnesota's Diversity is Our Strength

The Minnesota Multifaith Network (MnMN) is the statewide network connecting and equipping faith & interfaith leaders and organizations working for a more just and loving world.


MnMN connects and equips Minnesotans

for multifaith learning, leadership and action.

Our two main functions are to:

MnMN connects Minnesotans by convening interfaith leaders, faith organizations and practitioners across the state


MnMN communicates opportunities and resources  for interfaith involvement and learning


Building

relationships to transform the world.

At the heart of MnMN’s mission is the understanding that society can be transformed for the common good through relationship building and the power of collective action.  It is important to understand that MnMN is not an organization but a network.  MnMN operates via a  process called “network weaving” which brings together disparate people and organizations around their interests, needs and opportunities for collaboration.  MnMN has a rich and trusted history of convening and communicating across culture and faith traditions in Minnesota.  It is this expertise and experience that provides the trust and structure necessary to facilitate relationship and community building.

Angela Denker and Dr. Matt Taylor. What are the theological and historical roots of white Christian nationalism in the US? Who are the diverse set of religious and political actors operating within this broad movement and what unites them? What is the threat they pose to American Christianity, to the U.S. Government, to those who live in this country, and to the world beyond its borders? What can American Christians who want to protect the vulnerable and defend democracy do in this moment to challenge this movement both theologically and politically.

Currently through November 16; Luther Seminary, Olson Campus Center, 1490 Fulham Street, St. Paul The question of what it means to be human has never been more important. Christian leaders are increasingly called to engage communities of faith in deep, meaningful conversations around science and religious belief, care for creation, and how being human matters in today’s world. Through panels, interactive kiosks, hands-on displays, and videos, “Exploring Human Origins” invites viewers of all ages and faith traditions to explore and learn about milestones in the evolutionary journey of becoming human. The exhibit is free and open to the public. Hours Monday–Thursday: 12:00 – 6:00 p.m. Friday: 12:00 – 8:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday: Closed The exhibit encourages a public conversation that focuses on multiple perspectives of what it means to be human — one that embraces the ideas and beliefs of non-scientists and fosters greater appreciation of the complexity of the science of human evolution.
