Torna anche quest’anno **Isola Suonifera** Isola Suonifera è un evento mensile organizzato in collaborazione con lo Slow Mill, che vede il maestro di percussioni Kal Dos Santos e la sua compagnia Toc Toc Officina del Ritmo animare le strade del quartiere con un corteo musicale. Passeggiando tra le vie, i musicisti inviteranno passanti, residenti, bambini e chiunque voglia unirsi, a ballare e gioire insieme al ritmo delle percussioni. Al termine del corteo, l’evento si sposterà allo Slow Mill, dove sarà servito un pranzo a offerta libera con piatti tipici della tradizione afrobrasiliana. **Chi è Kal Dos Santos?** Kal Dos Santos è un attore e musicista brasiliano, diplomato alla Scuola di Musica e Arte Scenica dell’Università Federal di Bahia, dove ha iniziato la sua carriera professionale, specializzandosi in percussioni e canto.

Hello everybody, I usually look for events on Saturdays but I can hardly ever find any, so I asked myself, "Why don't I organise one ?" The idea is to meet at **Next Bar in Via Crema 7** (Very close to P.ta Romana underground station / yellow line) at **18:00** and hang out there for some time. You can also enjoy drinks and eat for 13 Euros (p.s. the buffet is mind-blowing). Guests are required to buy their first drinks upon entry. I kindly encourage you to RSVP during the week if you can. I really hope to meet you on Saturday! Don't worry if you can't see many people who've RSVPed, the event is advertised on other platforms, so there will be plenty of people to mingle with. When you get there ask for **Riccardo**. Feel free to WhatsApp me at **+39 334 283 1963** During the event, you'll have the opportunity to join our WhatsApp group by scanning QR codes displayed on the tables to stay in touch. Looking forward to a great time together!

[ITA] Domenica 21 faremo squadra per una serata speciale! 🤝 Unisciti a me per un turno di volontariato presso la mensa della Fondazione Fratelli di San Francesco. ​La mensa non è solo un posto dove si distribuisce cibo, ma un rifugio sicuro basato sulla dignità, l'ascolto e il calore umano. La domenica sera è un momento in cui c'è tantissimo bisogno, perché molte altre strutture in città sono chiuse. ​Cosa faremo? Il cibo viene preparato dai cuochi nella cucina accanto, quindi noi non dovremo cucinare. Il nostro compito sarà fondamentale per la gestione della sala: ci porteranno tutto l'occorrente e noi ci occuperemo di allestire lo spazio prima dell'inizio e poi faremo il servizio diretto di distribuzione della cena agli ospiti. ​Non serve alcuna esperienza precedente: faccio volontariato qui da anni, vi spiegherò tutto io sul posto e faremo il turno insieme dall'inizio alla fine! ​📍 Dove: Via Saponaro, 40, Milano ⏰ Quando: Domenica 21, dalle 17:00 alle 20:00 ​📋 Adempimenti importanti: Prima di iniziare il servizio, è obbligatorio compilare una liberatoria che dovrò inviare alla responsabile della struttura. Ti contatterò privatamente per mandartela! ​⚠️ Nota importante sulla presenza: I posti per questo evento sono contati e preziosi. Se ti iscrivi e poi non ti presenti o disdici all'ultimo, toglierai il posto a un altro volontario e metterai in difficoltà il servizio della mensa. Iscriviti solo se sei sicuro al 100% di partecipare. Grazie per la collaborazione! ​[ENG] This Sunday 21st, let's team up for a meaningful evening! 🤝 Join me for a volunteering shift at the Fratelli di San Francesco soup kitchen. ​This place is much more than just distributing food; it’s a safe haven built on dignity, listening, and human warmth. Sunday evening is a very busy time since many other facilities in the city are closed. ​What will we do? The food is prepared by the chefs in the kitchen next door, so we won't be cooking. Our role is key to managing the dining hall: they will bring us everything needed, and we will set up the space before the service starts and then serve dinner directly to the guests. ​No prior experience is needed! I have been a volunteer here for years, so I will guide you through everything and we will do the whole shift together. ​📍 Where: Via Saponaro, 40, Milan ⏰ When: Sunday 21st, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM 💬 Language: A basic understanding of Italian is helpful to interact with the kitchen staff, but I'll be there to help and translate for you! ​📋 Important Requirements: Before starting the shift, you must fill out a liability waiver/release form (liberatoria) which I need to forward to the center's manager. I will message you privately to send it over! ​⚠️ Important Note on Attendance: Spots for this event are limited and very valuable. If you sign up and then change your mind at the last minute or don't show up, you will take away the spot from another volunteer and impact the kitchen service. Please RSVP only if you are 100% sure you can make it. Thank you for your cooperation! ​[ESP] ¡Este domingo 21 nos uniremos para una tarde muy especial! 🤝 Acompáñame en un turno de voluntariado en el comedor social de la Fondazione Fratelli di San Francesco. ​El comedor no es solo un lugar donde se distribuye comida, sino un refugio seguro basado en la dignidad, la escucha y la calidez humana. El domingo por la tarde es un momento de gran necesidad, ya que muchos otros centros de la ciudad están cerrados. ​¿Qué haremos? La comida la preparan los cocineros en la cocina de al lado, por lo que nosotros no tendremos que cocinar. Nuestra labor será clave para la gestión del comedor: nos traerán todo lo necesario y nos encargaremos de preparar el espacio antes del inicio y luego haremos el servicio directo de distribución de la cena a los asistentes. ​No se necesita experiencia previa: llevo años siendo voluntario aquí, ¡así que yo les explicaré todo allí mismo y haremos el turno juntos de principio a fin! ​📍 Dónde: Via Saponaro, 40, Milán ⏰ Cuándo: Domingo 21, de 17:00 a 20:00 h 💬 Idioma: Un conocimiento básico de italiano es útil para interactuar con el personal de la cocina, ¡pero yo estaré allí para ayudarte y traducir! ​📋 Requisitos importantes: Antes de empezar el servicio, es obligatorio rellenar un documento de exención de responsabilidad (liberatoria) que debo enviar a la responsable del centro. ¡Te escribiré por privado para enviártelo! ​⚠️ Nota importante sobre la asistencia: Las plazas para este evento son limitadas y muy valiosas. Si te apuntas y luego no asistes o cancelas a última hora, le quitarás el sitio a otro voluntario y perjudicarás el servicio del comedor. Por favor, apúntate solo si estás 100% seguro de asistir. ¡Muchas gracias por tu colaboración!

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen). Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.

Welcome to Drunken Philosophy, a casual, curious, social discussion club. Come grab a drink and a seat at The Oracle. **Optional topic for this meetup: Where is everybody?** In 1950 the physicist Enrico Fermi was talking about aliens over lunch and asked a question that still has not gone away: if the universe is so vast and so old, and even a fraction of those billions of stars have planets, where is everyone? By the numbers the galaxy should be crowded with civilizations. Instead we look up and hear silence. That gap between "they should be everywhere" and "we see no one" is the Fermi Paradox. One of the most unsettling answers is the idea of a **Great Filter**: somewhere on the road from dead chemistry to a galaxy-spanning civilization, there is at least one step that is almost impossible to get past. Maybe the filter is behind us. Maybe life starting at all, or simple cells becoming complex, or intelligence ever evolving, is the freak accident, and we already cleared the hard part. Or maybe the filter is ahead of us, and advanced civilizations reliably wipe themselves out before they spread. Here is the part that messes with people. If we ever found life somewhere else, even pond scum on Mars, most people would call it the greatest discovery in history. But it might be the worst possible news. It would mean life is common, the early steps are easy, and the hard step is still in front of us. So the eerie silence overhead might actually be the best sign we could ask for. **Questions to wrestle with:** * Is it better to be alone? Would you rather we find alien life and learn we are not special, or find nothing and quietly improve our odds of surviving? * Where do you bet the filter sits, behind us or ahead of us, and why? * If it is ahead of us, what is it? Nuclear war, climate collapse, AI, something we cannot even picture yet? And can we do anything about a filter we cannot see coming? * Two principles pull opposite ways here. The principle of mediocrity (the Copernican principle, Sagan's "no privileged place in the universe") says we are ordinary, so what happened on Earth probably happened everywhere, which makes the silence scream louder. The anthropic principle says of course we find ourselves somewhere life was possible, since we could not observe anything else, so our being here may say almost nothing about how common life is. Which lens do you trust, and does the silence still demand an answer once you account for observer selection? * And if we did confirm life out there and had to accept we are not special, what would that do to belief in a higher power, and would shedding (or keeping) that belief help or hurt our odds of pulling together as one species? * Does any of this change how you live, or how humanity should be spending its time and money right now? As always the prompt is optional. Come for the conversation, stay for the drinks, and bring your own questions.

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

"Do as I say, not as I do." Children tend to have a built-in ability to recognize hypocrisy quicker than many adults, and there are few children who will respect an adult whose actions do not match his or her words. John the Baptizer wanted to make it clear that God himself is in NO way pleased by people who claim to follow Him and whose lives in NO way reflect His character. In fact, the Greek word for "actor" that people used in the first century is *"hypokrites"*. John called out the truth to any and all who would listen--from peasants to the king, even at peril of his own life and freedom--and insisted God does not judge by words alone, but by actions and in truth. Luke Chapter 3 concludes with making it clear to the Jewish and Greek readers of the day that Jesus was not only the rightful King of Israel, but also the true Son of Man--the Son of Adam, Who came to provide a way for those who had followed Adam into sin to return to fellowship with God. Take a look at Luke Chapter 3 and join us at **10 am,** **Sunday, June 28,** at **True Food Kitchen at Easton Town Center.** We'd love to see you there! Get your tickets on [EventBrite](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/columbus-luke-3-tickets-1989802924110)! Check us out on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/events/1657939185252324)!

Welcome, readers! Our June read is ***Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible*** ***Voyage*** **by Alfred Lansing.** A work of nonfiction, and one of the most astonishing survival stories in history, we follow Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew after their ship is crushed by Antarctic ice. Stranded in one of the harshest environments on Earth, the men endure months of isolation, freezing temperatures, and near starvation—yet refuse to give up hope. Lansing brings their ordeal to life through vivid detail and firsthand accounts, capturing both the brutality of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. At its core, the story is a powerful testament to leadership, perseverance, and the unbreakable will to survive against impossible odds. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **all** **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖
