Spirit of Water: A Celebration with Mississippi River
July 25 at 3:00 pm – July 26 at 5:00 pm CDT
Join us July 25–26, 2025, for a celebration with Mississippi River! Together, we will connect, learn, pray, engage, play, celebrate, and honor the spirit of water. This year’s event will take place over two days!
On July 25, we will meet at United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities from 3:00–8:00 PM CT for an educational afternoon and evening. United students will present projects from an eco-justice class in the afternoon from 3:00–5:30 PM. Then, in the evening, we will present a guest speaker from 6:00–8:00 PM.
On July 26, we will meet at Hidden Falls Regional Park in St. Paul from 1:00–5:00 PM. While there, we and our partners will host a community celebration that features speakers, music, booths, food, art, and play areas for children.
These partners are co-presenting the event:
- Resilient Indigenous Sisters Engaging (R.I.S.E. Coalition)
- Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light
- Friends of the Mississippi River
Now in its third year, this event is designed to highlight the care and responsibility involved in protecting and sharing valuable water resources, like Mississippi River. Too often, infrastructure and institutions hide our water resources. Our focus centers on themes of gratitude, celebration, unity, coming together, the commonality of water as a presence in our life, reverence, respect, and honor for our water and all that is sacred.
