A Very Special Kinnect Circle: Friendsgiving Brunch

A table to gather around.

Last year, we gathered for our very first Kinnect Friendsgiving, sharing food, stories, laughter, and the kind of connection that makes community feel like home.

This year, we're gathering again, with a little twist.

Join us for a Friendsgiving Brunch, a special Kinnect Circle celebrating the connections we create, the unique gifts we each bring, and the magic that happens when we make space for one another to show up as we are.

Bring a favorite dish to share. It doesn't need to be Thanksgiving-themed or fancy. Maybe it's something you've made a hundred times, something your family loves, or simply something you really enjoy making and sharing with other people.

The food is a bonus.

The real reason we're gathering is each other.

We'll share a meal, settle into circle, and make room for the conversations that go a little deeper. The ones where we get to know each other beyond the usual introductions, discover what we have in common, appreciate what makes us different, and recognize the gifts each of us brings into the spaces we share.

We'll also make space to reflect on the people, places, and communities that have shaped us, the gifts we've inherited along the way, and what we want to carry forward into the communities we're creating together.

Whether you've been part of Kinnect from the beginning or this is your first circle, there's a place for you at the table.

The Rhythm of Our Morning

9:45–10:00 | Arrive & settle in

Come 10–15 minutes early to get settled, grab a spot, and start connecting with the women gathering around you.

10:00–1:30 | Kinnect Friendsgiving Circle & Brunch

We'll begin with a shared moment of gratitude before enjoying our meal. From there, we'll weave together conversation, reflection, and connection, exploring what makes us who we are, the gifts we bring into the world, and how we can create deeper connections by making room for all of it.

1:30–2:00 | Linger & connect

We'll leave some room for lingering around the table, continuing conversations, and sharing a few more laughs.

What to Bring

✨ A favorite dish to share — Thanksgiving-themed is absolutely not required! Bring something you love to make, eat, or share. Homemade or store-bought, both are welcome.

✨ A serving utensil, if your dish needs one.

✨ A blanket and/or jacket — We'll have heaters in the barn, but depending on the outside temperature, it may be a bit chilly!

✨ Anything else you need to feel comfortable and at home.

Know what you're bringing already? Let us know what dish you're planning to bring when you register so we can get a sense of what's coming to the table.

Still figuring it out? No worries. We'll send a follow-up email closer to the event with more details and a chance to let us know what you're bringing.

A Gentle Reminder

You don't need to bring the perfect dish, have the perfect story, or arrive knowing exactly what makes you uniquely you.

Just bring yourself.

Your experiences, your perspective, your sense of humor, your questions, your way of seeing the world. All of it is part of what you bring to the table.

We'll bring the food, the circle, and the space to connect.

Because real connection changes everything.
