Community Gathering
When: Saturday, February 26, 11-1pm
Where: St. Pauls Lutheran Church, 2742 15th Avenue South Minneapolis
Please join us for our 3rd Group Meeting. This month is Energy Month. We are
looking forward to talking with you about really energetic (sorry, bad pun)
happenings in the community moving towards locally produced and owned energy.
There will be a presentation by a few people working in this realm in the
neighborhood, followed by a short group discussion.
Then, we plan on breaking out into our working groups. To start those groups,
namely FOOD, COMMUNITY ARTS, ENERGY, COMMUNITY BUILDING
developing ideas, plans and actual hands on work! There are great developments
happening in each of these areas in
Phillips.
Before this meeting, please look at our group page for more information about

Lastly, we'd really like to make this an indoor plant swap as well... Let's
give it a go at this meeting, to give us motivation to hang on until spring
comes. So please grab a few of your spider plant babies, take some clippings of
that snake plant, or whatever you might be able to offer and put them into
something you don't mind giving away. Others will hopefully do the same, and we
can swap. Indoor plants are great for cleaning up indoor air pollution, and
making the winter more tolerable.
This month we will be meeting at St. Paul's Lutheran Church basically 28th s
and 15th Ave. This congregation works hard for social justice through their
services and programs. They are having weekly mosaics classes, to create and
then put on planters around the community but especially in front of gardens.
The idea is to both beautify and unify our neighborhood.
We will have food again, so please bring what ever you would love to share.
Hope to see you there!
