Thanks to everyone who came out to the St. Louis Park Unity Sing! Special thanks to our hosts @WatThaiMN!
The city of @StLouisPark has a yearly #UnitySing where congregations and community share song and raise voices as one. I can’t think of anything we need more right now.
In the photo, Wat Thai Buddhist monks led chant. They also fed us after the event. 😋
