A program of the Common Heart Interfaith Fellowship

Drawing upon wisdom from Buddhism, Sufism /Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, Earth-based religions, Taoism, and much more, this interfaith celebration invites us to open more fully to the Divine, however we experience that. Recognizing that "there are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground," we honor and celebrate all the beautiful faiths that grace the human spiritual garden.

Attendance does not require you to embrace any particular religious belief or practice. We invite you to use and enjoy what speaks to you, in your own way and at your own pace. We only ask that you come with a receptive mind and an open heart.

Celebrations are free and open to all. Donations are gratefully accepted to help cover expenses. Because of the meditative nature of this service, we ask that you arrive on time, and that you do not bring small children.

We are now offering Intergenerational Celebrations
These gatherings are for all ages, honoring diverse traditions with music, story, poetry, prayer, reflective silence, creative activities & simple ritual. Dates and Times may vary. Please visit www.commonheart.org for more information.
