Interfaith Dialogue: Shared Values in American Scripture
Thursday, May 28, 5:00 - 6:00 pm MST via Zoom
(Note: this session was originally scheduled for May 21, but has been moved to May 28)
Join AFN for a series of four monthly online gatherings followed by an interfaith prayer vigil as we mark 250 years of the American experiment. Drawing on the
faith250 framework,
we will gather to reflect on texts that have shaped our history, from the call of the
New Colossus, to the promise of the Declaration of Independence and more. We will hear from diverse guest speakers and together, we will seek divine guidance to move beyond polarization and toward a future where "liberty and justice
for all" is a lived reality for every neighbor.
These conversations will also acknowledge the complex and unfinished nature of the American story. For many, the ideals of liberty and equality have been sources of hope and belonging; for others, the nation s history carries deep wounds connected to colonization,
slavery, exclusion, and broken promises. In this series, we hold these realities together with honesty and humility, recognizing that living within the identity of the United States means wrestling with both its aspirations and its contradictions.
Register using the link below to receive Zoom information and occasional updates about the series. You may participate in as many of the five sessions as your schedule allows.
