 Let Justice Roll Like A River

DignityUSA's 21st National Convention Minneapolis, MN

The Convention 2013 web site has new features and information added regularly. You can access it from the DignityUSA home page, or directly at www.conv2013.dignityusa.org


 

 

When Dignity members, family and friends gather in the Twin Cities, we will be in a land with a great heritage of social justice and faith. We will celebrate the gifts of the great upper plains and honor the wheat ground into flour for the Eucharist, which sustains us and be empowered by the rushing waters and falls of the Mississippi, which drive our thirst for justice.

Convention attendees will immerse themselves into questions of justice, thirsting to see Dignity’s mission for equality and justice in church and society for LGBT Catholics be fulfilled. And we will let the waters of justice carry us beyond ourselves to seek wholeness and holiness throughout our world.

Come be renewed in the waters of the land of 10,000 lakes.

We look forward to welcoming you to Minneapolis in 2013. And plan to enjoy the beauty of Minneapolis and St. Paul - the lakes, the biking trails, architecture - before and after the convention. There are many adventures, historical sites and entertainment venues across the Twin Cities area, and throughout Minnesota, that you’ll want to explore.

The Minneapolis Hilton is conveniently located 1 block from Nicollet Mall and Orchestra Hall and within walking distance of Loring Park, the Walker Art Museum, great shopping and many other downtown attractions.

Should unforeseen circumstances force you to cancel your convention plans, you may receive a refund on your registration until April 1, 2013. After that date, your deposit will be converted to a contribution to DignityUSA and will be fully tax-deductible.

Come to the water and the over 140 Dignity members who are already planning ahead for Minneapolis 2013. We hope you will spread the word among your family and friends. Encourage them to experience a Dignity convention - an occasion that truly renews and refreshes our spirit so that we can continue the work of bringing about a just and inclusive church and society.

See you in the Cities!

July 4th, 2013 5:00 PM through July 7th, 2013 1:00 PM
