Programming for the week is diverse, beginning with a Christian Worship, a Native American drum circle, introductions to Buddhism and Wicca, and a Flying Spaghetti Monster Supper sponsored by the Freethinkers of the University of North Dakota. The week will also include a panel presentation by the Ten Percent Society (a local LGBTQA organization), Bible Study, and Theology for Lunch.  A community Gospel Concert sponsored by the Black Student Association and the Era Bell Thompson Multicultural Center is also scheduled for the week, as well as a "Meal and Conversation with a Muslim," brought to you by the Muslim Student Association.  Many other events are planned by various groups.  A full schedule may be found at http://www.facebook.com/undinterfaith?sk=info and at  www.christus-rex.org.

 

The programming for this week has been collaborative effort among committee members of very diverse backgrounds.  Programming for the week will culminate on Saturday with an Interfaith service project in conjunction with the Global Friends Coalition.  All events are free and open to everyone.

 

Interfaith Week planning committee member Kaitlyn Kelly said, "These events are a way to show people how much all communities of faith add to our community, but they're also opportunities to learn about our neighbors.  I think we're hoping that each of these events will draw in people who are curious and willing to ask questions so real learning can take place."
