About this Event
The Martin Gang Institute for Intergroup Relations and the Center for Religion and Spirituality invite you to this interfaith dialogue on Facebook.
Over the last two years of the pandemic, we have had to move much of our worship online. Yet our religious traditions also offer us prayer and rituals that we can do outside of our congregational worship. A panel of representatives of the Catholic, Jewish, and Muslim communities will discuss rituals and practice that we do at home or in other places besides our houses of worship.
These presentations will be include a public Q&A on the comment board. A similar forum will be conducted in Spanish on March 30.
Panel
– Rabbi Mark Diamond, senior lecturer of Jewish Studies at LMU and former director of the American Jewish Committee in Los Angeles
– Dr. Kim Harris, assistant professor of Theological Studies at LMU
– Dr. Amir Hussain, professor and chair of Theological Studies at LMU and president-elect of the American Academy of Religion
