Event Description
On August 5, 2017, the Dar Al Farooq Islamic Center in Bloomington, MN, suffered damage after a bomb detonated inside the mosque. Days later, hundreds of people of different faiths gathered to support Muslim communities living in Minnesota.
Join us for an evening of conversation as Muslim women and men share their experiences of discrimination, faith, community, agency, and love.
This event is open to all Bethel community members.
