From San Diego-Hundreds are expected to join hands in prayer this week at a San Diego church in response to last Friday’s shooting massacre in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Residents of all faith are invited to gather at 6 p.m. on
Wednesday, March 20, at St. Paul’s Episcopal Cathedral in downtown San
Diego to share a meal and stories of interfaith friendships.
Salaam, a local non-profit, is hosting the event along with the Episcopal Diocese of San Diego.
Salaam unites San Diego’s interfaith leaders to reject Islamophobia and stand against all forms of hate and violence.
“I think it would be a great opportunity for both members of
Muslim and Christian communities to come together in solidarity,” said
Steve Slocum, founder of Salaam. “I’m expecting the event to have some
powerful moments across faith boundaries.”
Salaam is a non-religious, non-partisan organization and has
held a number of events in the last year designed to bring people of
Muslim and non-Muslim faith together.
