On May 20, 2007 almost 100 people of different faiths and religions gathered at Beth Shalom Synagogue to share their food and their lives.  After a stimulating discussion, moderated by Rev. Phil Woodland, with Father Paul Counce, Dr. Burak Aksoylu , Rabbi Stan Zamek, and Rev. Bernadine Johnson as panelists, individual table dialogue continued the learning process as we talked about our faith, our religious diversity, and our common values.  The next Interfaith Dialogue will be on October 16, 2007, at 5:45pm at St.:street> Aloysious Catholic Church.
