The Center for Faith and Spirituality is committed to interfaith work. Our Lutheran identity is one that calls us to love God and to love our neighbors. Everyone is our neighbor and our work is to find common ground for the sake of creating a peace-filled world.

Interfaith Lunch

Thursdays, 11:45-12:15 p.m., Ehrler Hospitality Center, A. F. Siebert Chapel

Every Thursday, students, faculty, and staff are invited to lunch and to learn about different faith traditions, specific traditions, and rituals that are important to faith and non-faith communities in order to be in conversation with each other about matters of ultimate concern and to find our shared values. Contact Serena Richardson at srichardson@gre2n.com or Mara Lysne at mlysne@gre2n.com for more info.
