The People of God: A Sacred Prism

Let us join in prayer for the presenters and participants in this special conference, held from April 12-14 in Tampa, FL

In these times of uncertainly, fear, and suspicion of people from different faith traditions, this conference affirms the Divine Light that shines through all people of Godly faith, and offers the opportunity to experience that Life-Giving Spirit in an interfaith gathering.

Led by a rabbi, a Christian priest, an imam, and an interfaith minister, participants will hear presentations, and experience some of the spiritual practices of the three Abrahamic traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam (including the Sufi tradition), with portions of Holy Scripture, music, poetry, and movement. Participants will also have opportunity to share among themselves how the spiritual practices of their faith traditions inform and guide their lives, and to offer ways that we can go forth from the conference to be witnesses of unity and hope.
