COMMUNICATE

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.

The lunar month of Ramadan is set to begin on the evening of March 10th, and end on April 9th. Called "the month of the Qur'an," denoting when the first verses of the Qur'an were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, Muslims spend the month fasting daily from dawn to sunset, spending more time in prayer, and increasing their charitable actions. Fasting is one of the five main pillars of Islam, an effort towards patience and mastery of the self.

Resources to learn more about Ramadan, find interfaith iftars (breaking fast dinners) near you, or ways to support Muslim lead community building ventures this Ramadan are linked below.

Join our new BUILDERS CIRCLE CAMPAIGN

Over the past year there has been a steep rise in hate and violence toward specific religious groups both in Minnesota and nationally. Fear, division and misunderstanding spread as relationships break down and communities suffer. Now, more than ever, we must expand MnMN’s work to BUILD connections, communication and equipping potential leaders amongst those working for peace and justice in Minnesota. To do this, we ask you to stand with us in building the Minnesota Multifaith Network by supporting joining our Builders Circle Campaign and pledge any amount for three years to work collectively building bridges of understanding and peace.
