Gathering of Waters - prelude future interfaith work

The Gathering of Waters event in October was a nice prelude to further interfaith activity in the Madison area. There will be an interfaith Thanksgiving event November 23, 2008 at Lakeview Lutheran Church in Madison. Then the 11th Annual Interfaith Awareness week will have a week of interfaith opportunities from December 7 through December 13 - the annual noon program in the Capital will be December 10th - Human Rights Day.
