DREAM FORUM | Round 2 (Virtual)

NOVEMBER IS DREAMER MONTH!

For the past six months, our twelve Dreamers have been guided on a communal journey of slowing down to discern God’s voice calling new things forth, a process that included rhythms of stillness and listening to God for themselves and for one another, spiritual direction, coaching, and dedicated resourcing from the broader Forum network.

Now it’s time to bring YOUR skills, connections, and resources into this communal process of dream cultivation and play your part in taking up the calling we’ve received—a calling to reimagine and remake our world with love.

We’re extending this year’s Dream Forum across two nights, highlighting six Dreamers each week, to create more space for honoring these incredible Dreamers and nurturing generative connections. Together, in Spirit-led community, we can cultivate new vision to help bring beauty, justice, and restoration to our world.

Join us Nov 7th or Nov 14th (online) and let’s dream together!

RSVP BELOW FOR 1 NIGHT OR BOTH!

ROUND 2 (NOV 14, 7:00p EST)

Meet Christina Farinacci-Roberts (Latham, NY) | SOULARISE Leadership

My dream is to create an entire MOVEMENT that involves women finding greater clarity, capacity and contentment in who they are that leads to them achieving greater freedom, fulfillment and flow in what they do so they can accelerate their ascension and pursue an ever elevated existence…all while in COMMUNITY. These positive effects will then ripple out into their homes and in their workplaces, which will enhance flourishing exponentially all around. Essentially, when you edify, nurture and honor your soul, as well as the body that houses it, you will show up as your truest, highest self with authenticity and authority that will better position you to be who God has called you to be and do what He has called you to do.

Meet Ellen (New York, NY) | Renaissance Salons (NYC, SF, LA)

I dream of bringing together architects, designers, documentarians, photographers, mathematicians, doctors, and interdisciplinary creatives to have generative and vulnerable conversations around experiencing beginner’s mind while pursuing something new. I see a gracious space offered to workshop, critique, refine, and showcase serious new projects.

Meet Jonathan Abraham Kindberg (Austin, TX) | The Diaspora Network

Immigration is one of the hottest political topics of the day. It is also a central theme throughout the Scriptures. Over and over we see movement and migration being at the heart of the purposes of God and his people. The majority of immigrants coming to the US are Christians who are planting churches, starting businesses and bringing renewal to the city and the church in North America. I dream of a national community of city networks which connect and mobilize immigrant churches and church leaders, empower the next generation (1.5 and 2nd generation immigrants) as global Christian leaders and partner non-immigrant churches with the nations here in each city.

Meet Sarah Spear (Portland, CT) | Increasing Belonging for People Living with Disabilities

Accessibility is still, largely, an unscalable endeavor which means that people relying on accessibility lose out and become further marginalized by our communities’ systems. Both people living with disabilities AND people entering their senior years benefit from accessibility. Businesses and residences can be designed with accessibility as a foremost consideration once easily available technology exists.

Meet Jared Grabow (Dallas, TX) | Transformation and Empowerment through the Arts

My life-long passion for the arts took a back seat to more immediate and practical necessities of a job in a bank, a mortgage, and raising two sweet and beautiful kids, which in its own right is very fulfilling. However, the dream to write my first novel has stayed with me. But the dream doesn’t end with the books themselves. I am also seeking a way to give back to the legacy of my childhood teacher who inspired a love for the arts and writing within me. Ms. McMillan founded a non-profit aimed at providing a Christian classical education to lower income families within South Dallas. My dream in is to tell the stories that I believe are put in my heart as an avenue toward cultural transformation and empowerment of vulnerable communities.

Meet Garrett Moore (Athens, GA) | Empowering and Equipping ALL God’s People

I dream of a radically collaborative movement that does not merely invite minorities and marginalized people “to the table” of anglo-Presbyterians, but builds a new partnership together, sharing resources, energy, wisdom, and authority, for the common goal of empowering and equipping all of God’s people to live generatively, aligned with the gospel, in the power of the Spirit, reflecting Christ’s beauty in every sphere of life.

Meet the Dreamers in Round 1 (Nov 7th, 7pm)
