Interfaith Peace Walk in West Philadelphia
Sunday May 3, 2-5 PM Beginning at Hillel House on Penn Campus
Since November of 2003 Jews, Christians, and Muslims have come together
to plan Interfaith Peace Walks for Philadelphia. These walks have included
stops for prayers, teaching, singing, and fellowship at mosques, synagogues,
churches and Independence Mall. This year's route will begin at Hillel House at
the University of Pennsylvania Campus (where Rabbi
Lauren will be sending the group of walkers off with an opening
prayer), travel to the Philadelphia Masjid and
end at the Philadelphia Cathedral. During these walks we have prayed
for the
safety and freedom of all people. We ask all to embrace hope, not fear
and to
seek peace through love and justice, not military might. We ask you to
join us
to show that peace between people of all faiths is possible. This is a
Family Friendly event, but please be advised of the length of the walk! If you have any questions or would like to meet up with fellow Kol Tzedekers before the walk, email jackconviser@hotmail.com. ------- Kol Tzedek Kabbalat Shabbat Services May 8 (every second Friday of the month) 6:30-8:00 pm Calvary Center, 48th St. and Baltimore Ave. Join us for our participatory, traditional, and meaningful Shabbat evening services.
