Center for Interfaith Dialogue: Interfaith Dialogue with Fifth Avenue Presbyterian

Join our neighbors in faith, Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church for an Interfaith Dialogue Group. This year, in honor of America’s 250th anniversary, our Zoom sessions will explore some of our nation’s most enduring civic texts, including the Declaration of Independence and Emma Lazarus’s The New Colossus. Together, we will examine each through the lens of our respective faith traditions, engaging in thoughtful conversation about the values, hopes, and ideals they express. Our discussions are designed to broaden perspectives, deepen understanding of one another’s faiths, and foster meaningful dialogue across religious traditions. Led by Rabbi Sara Sapadin and Reverends Laurie DeMott and Chris Palmer.

Open to all Temple Emanu-El members. To register, please email interfaith@emanuelnyc.org.
