EVENT HIGHLIGHTS
The Abrahamic Traditions Dinner encourages friendship and understanding among people of the three Abrahamic religions: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. All are welcome from any faith or tradition to come together to engage in dialogue and honor the importance of religious diversity and inter-religious cooperation.
In this year’s program, a variety of religious voices will share their perspectives, faith teaching and personal stories on hospitality. These voices will include clergy, lay people and refugees. The Abrahamic Traditions Dinner will be an opportunity to meet your neighbors from diverse backgrounds and start a friendly dialogue through guided table conversation.
This is a free event but we encourage participants to donate. 100% of donations will go to the Turkish American Society of Missouri to support a refugee college student, who had to leave his/her country due to governmental oppression.
