House of Cooperative Metropolitan Ministries Board Member

I have organized an event for Thursday night; it is called a Dialogue Dinner and it will be a potluck dinner with special time for introsuctions and stories and discussion questions. It is an interfaith dinner and members of our organization from many different faiths (Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu UCC, UU, Buddhist, Humanist) will be in attendence. The dialogue questions will be focused on \\\"Welcoming\\\" in different faiths. This dialogue dinner will also discuss Pentacost from the Christian tradition and the feeling of the \\\"holy spirit.\\\" The community members present will not only be from different religions, but come from different countries as well (India, Sweden, Ireland, Equador, and Japan). We have organized these events before and that is why I am confident this one will be a success as well and will be a great opportunity for dialogue across culture, language, and religion. It is all about understanding and acceptance (much like the welcoming movement).
