This week we got to see and hear stories of the way God is already at work restoring the flow of resources within our neighborhood. We got to see and hear stories of beauty and of disparity. As we dwell with God in place with one one another we remember we are a people of Open Hands, moving from independence to interdependence as Jesus models for us in Philippians 2. 

As we learn to dwell with God in place with people in the International District, we have invited some neighbors to be our guides on this journey. Each month, during the week of our neighborhood reflection on social dynamics at play within the ID, we will listen to and learn from a lively conversation with some neighborhood "all-stars" who are deeply rooted in our place and deeply committed to our people.

This convo is centered around the social dynamic of "Pennies"/Money, how it flows, works, is distributed and acquired in the International District. This is a lot of fun and well worth a thoughtful listen.
