Lenten Interfaith Pilgrimage Series

Listening to diverse perspectives is essential to broaden understanding and friendship. This can help us to build bridges of understanding. With that in mind, this year, we won’t do another book study in the parlor. Instead, we will travel to listen our neighbors of other religions. We will visit a different site each week.

Our first visit will be to a Buddhist temple in Richfield.

At each site, we will have time to learn about their history and core beliefs, we will join in prayer and song according to their tradition, and we will have time for dialogue.
