Becoming Neighbors Congregations: A How To for Your Faith Community

As many of you know, much of Lumunos/Faith at Work’s history has been focused on engaging people within faith communities.  While we do not promote any particular tradition, we recognize the shared values of many traditions and believe something deeply meaningful and important happens when people of different faith traditions come to know and care about one another.

Becoming Neighbors Congregations provides a process for two different faith communities (different in culture, race, nationality) to partner and meet together quarterly over a year period of time using the following four steps as a guide: meaningful conversations, fun exchange, faith at work in the world, and telling the story.  Lumunos provides consultation, connections and resources, and small seed grants to support these partnerships.  If you or your faith community might be interested in learning more, please join us for our next Becoming Neighbors Lumzoom on Weds, Oct. 29th at 7pm CST.   We will be joined by representatives from several northern Illinois congregations who have just begun their journey together.
