SUMMARY:An Evening with Rumi
DESCRIPTION:This year\, in observation of World Refugee Day\, New Neighbors Coalition will host an Evening with Rumi on Thursday\, June 18th at 6pm in the St. Luke’s Undercroft. \nThis community gathering will reflect on and explore some of the 13th-century poet’s most influential work. We will focus primarily on the first story of Rumi’s Masnavi\, Book I\, using the Nicholson translation\, as well as a couple of his shorter poems. \nRumi’s words have traveled across borders and through generations\, speaking to feelings of longing and connection for millions of people across cultures and languages. \nThis intimate conversation will explore themes of resilience and belonging\, while recognizing that the experience of displacement\, and the search for home\, is one that has shaped human history for centuries. \nA translated PDF of the first story from the Masnavi\, and one of Rumi’s shorter poems from Divan-e Shams can be found for anyone interested in reading them ahead of the event here: https://stlukesjamestown.sharepoint.com/…/event-home… \nNo preparation or prior reading is needed. This will be an informal\, guided conversation centered on selected passages from the first story of Rumi’s Masnavi\, Book I\, with spaced for shared reflections discussion. \nLight refreshments will be served. For questions\, please contact New Neighbors Coalition Director\, Momina Di Blasio\, at momina@stlukesjamestown.org.
