Minnesota communities reflect a great diversity of faiths. Many are curious to learn about traditions other than their own. The Minnesota Multifaith Speakers Network is a cooperative project of the Minnesota Multifaith Network (MnMN) and several faith communities (see list below) to organize learning opportunities. Audiences can request speakers of one faith or panels of multiple faiths. Our network brings together interested groups with trusted, knowledgeable speakers from different faiths and spiritual traditions to create occasions for positive encounters.
Businesses, community groups, faith organizations, schools, neighbors, and friends seeking to benefit from a faith or multifaith presentation are invited to use our Speaker Request Form to help arrange your event.
Upon submission, Rev. Cynthia Bronson Sweigert will work with you to plan your desired faith or multifaith event.
Important Note
The speakers and speaker bureaus represented here are dedicated to sharing their experiences, knowledge, and multifaith connection. Some are able to volunteer their time while others depend on this work for their livelihood. MnMN seeks to make this process financially sustainable for all involved and encourages the awarding of an honorarium, if feasible.
We share these resources in the spirit of collaborative learning and not as an endorsement or sponsorship of any particular organization or position.
MnMN seeks to provide access to leadership development and training for emerging leaders as well faith and interfaith communities and organizations in Minnesota. Opportunities can be found though MnMN’s convening and events shared via our communication. We have compiled lists for various regular training and education opportunities. Please stay tuned to our newsletter, social media posts and this website for ongoing opportunities. Please let us know if you know of others.

There are many resources locally, nationally and internationally that can help us all do better and find our places in this important work. Our focus is on supporting and equipping interfaith leaders to join together to amplify efforts leading to equity, justice, compassion, understanding, and empathy. We recognize that people orient differently to religion, spirituality and worldviews, so leaders may include people from any spiritual home background with an interest in interfaith or inter-belief work committed to championing these values in the world.

It is important to understand that MnMN is not an organization; we are a network. Our purpose is to build relationships and community through a process we call “weaving”. Network weaving involves bringing together disparate people and organizations by convening around their interests, needs and opportunities for collaboration. MnMN has a rich and trusted history of convening across culture and faith traditions in Minnesota. It is this expertise and experience that provides the trust and structure necessary to create safe spaces for relationship and community building. MnMN facilitates relationships which help transform fear into understanding.
