Dear Friends,

We are overjoyed with the response from the Twin Cities community! Since the MPR story our membership has soared, and we are so excited to have so many families volunteering to host dinners. As you can imagine I am trying my best to respond to our new members and provide resources for others that want to start their own groups in other cities. I appreciate your patience through this busy time.

As I had shared previously, our goal is to connect families and build lasting relationships that will strengthen our community. Therefore, we will maintain our initial plan of organizing 3-4 dinners a month matching one family from our group and one newcomer family. We currently have hosts for March and April, and will plan to start signing up hosts for May and June in the coming weeks.

Thank you for joining the group and opening your homes to newcomers! Together we will build a stronger, safer, and more welcoming community.

More updates coming soon.

Best,
Marina and Umar
