On December 5, 2021 By MPAC
REPLAY OF LIVESTREAM. To watch live: https://youtu.be/AfSZYcRQyHE At MPAC’s 2021 virtual event, we heard an update about our Mustard Seed Project. Inspired by our generous donor, Diane Mott and the work she championed building understanding within the inter-faith community between Evangelical and Muslim communities. To honor Diane Mott’s memory and her determination to act, we started the Mustard Seed project which aims to bring Muslims and Evangelical Christians in predominantly Red States to the same table, to talk, get to know each other, share a meal, and ask uncomfortable questions.
