DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays\, June 3 and June 10 at Temple Isaiah\, 7:00-8:30 p.m.\nWednesdays\, June 17 and 24 at Lafayette-Orinda Presbyterian Church\, 7:00-8:30 p.m.\nFriday\, July 3: Community Potluck and Interfaith Service at Temple Isaiah\, 6:00-8:30 p.m.\nRegister by May 22 \nLafayette-Orinda Presbyterian Church and Temple Isaiah are partnering to host a multi-week commemoration of the 250th year of America for congregations in our community. We all know these are divisive and bitter times. This program\, faith250\, invites us to build a more robust\, healthy\, and interconnected interfaith and civic community. Clusters of congregations across the country will be participating. \nOn each Wednesday evening in June\, we will explore one of four foundational texts from American history: \n\nThe Declaration of Independence\nFrederick Douglass’ “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?”\nThe New Colossus by Emma Lazarus\nAmerica the Beautiful by Katharine Lee Bates\n\nAn expert will help frame each text for us. Then we will gather in intentionally-created small groups.  During these conversations\, we will explore the texts from our diverse perspectives\, articulate the values we share\, deepen our relationships\, and reflect on our role as people of faith in this challenging moment. \nPlan to join your neighbors in this once-in-a generation opportunity!
