FYI, I am looking forward to attending this event. As a cradle Catholic, I am well grounded in my faith & heritage but that being said I am always looking to stretch the awareness of my own understanding of God by church shopping for a better Catholic experience, a different perspective to take me out of echo chambers of our everyday routine. I enjoy exploring other faiths and traditions and have bowed my head, knelt and prayed with many; no matter their faith. Religion is a just lens we use to see God and no matter what lens you are using, in the end, they all bring us closer to our higher power, creator or savior.
I believe many of us are searching for clarity of that higher power in order to put aside the conflicts of our polarized society, to work for love and understanding of our fellow man, by looking beyond ourselves we can see what can be, as it is always so much more than what currently is.
I am going to work hard to juggle my work schedule to attend this conversation, maybe I will see you there? John
