Healing FLAMES Movie Sinners Fireside Chat October 17th 6pm
We are back with our Healing FLAMES (Families Lives Assignments Minds Elevations and Souls) fireside chats. The purpose of our fireside chats are to bring families and elders together to share intergenerational wisdom on how we can walk in our purpose and to fortify our communities spiritually. These fireside chats are interactive opportunities to bring our hearts, minds, and souls together with intention of building with one another. We provide childcare and dinner. This session will we discuss the movie Sinners with co-facilitation from Drs. Kalonji Nzinga and Terrenda White from CU Boulder. We are excited to dig into the themes, thrills, and topics that resonated most for you from the film. See you soon!
