2025 Peace Colloquy Houselessness & Community Action

Join the Peace Colloquy as we come together in sacred community to explore one of the most urgent justice issues of our time: houselessness. Through stories, learning, and dialogue, we’ll examine the systemic roots of housing insecurity and how faith communities can be bold advocates for shelter, dignity, and belonging.

This gathering will feature keynote speakers with lived experience, interactive workshops, theological reflection, and space for collective discernment. Whether you’re already involved in housing justice or just beginning to ask questions, all are welcome.

Together, we will:

Listen deeply to voices often left unheard

Explore practical and spiritual responses to houselessness

Build relationships that spark hope and action

Envision a world where everyone has a place to call home

Come be part of a movement rooted in peace, compassion, and community transformation.

KC Rainbow Tour

If New York and the Stonewall Riots are the birthplace of the Gay Liberation Movement, then Kansas City is where it was first conceived. On this driving tour through the city, the tour sheds light on how the gay agenda was first formed three years before Stonewall and shares the city’s rich and colorful LGBTQ+ history.

This approximately 90-minute tour will begin near UMKC (the University of Missouri-Kansas City) and wrap up outside the Kansas City Museum with stops outside historic gay bar locations, Womontown, the Liberty Memorial, the Jazz District, and many, many more. Along the way, you’ll hear voices from the LGBTQ+ community share their stories, past and present.
