CONNECT | Different, Not Divided

Different, Not Divided (quick conversations, speed dating style) is an effort designed to bring us closer together by sharing our unique stories and experiences. In a world where differences often divide us, this initiative seeks to bridge those gaps and create a community where understanding and empathy flourish. Join us on September 29th at 1:00 pm at 2030 Gregg St.


Why Participate? 

At this event you’ll get to:

  • Share Your Story: Everyone has a unique path that has shaped their perspectives. By sharing your story, you contribute to a tapestry of diverse experiences that enrich our community.

  • Gain Deeper Understanding: Move beyond surface-level positions and connect with others on a deeper level. Discover the roots of different viewpoints and gain a broader awareness of the world around you.

  • Build Community: Through genuine dialogue, we strengthen the bonds that hold us together. Understanding and compassion are the cornerstones of a resilient and united community.


How It Works

Structured Conversations: Engage in one-on-one dialogues (think speed dating, but you know… at church, with friends). You will be guided by thought-provoking questions which prompt us to share our exposures and experiences on topics like guns, the border, fertility — all those hard topics we avoid.

Safe Environment: Our team ensures that this is a space where everyone feels respected and valued. We will navigate these conversations with care, ensuring that all voices are heard and honored. The goal is not to change positions, but to share perspectives and what has informed them. 

Mutual Learning:  Embrace the opportunity to learn from the experiences and perspectives of others. While our paths may differ, our shared humanity binds us together.

If you are ready to take a step toward deeper connection and mutual understanding, we invite you to join by registering below.

Ps. This workshop is not the same as the on we’ve done in the past, we are just reusing the name because we liked it!
