Interfaith Dialogue Panel

Date: Oct 3, 2018 at 7:30pm to 8:30pm
The Interfaith Dialogue Panel will feature speakers from three faith traditions, including Buddhism, Christianity, and Sikhism. CentreFaith presents a Convocation of thought-provoking discussion between individuals of different backgrounds on the subject of religion. The panelists will engage in conversation with each other about their experiences, beliefs, and the intersections that exist therein. This is an excellent opportunity to learn from and interact with local religious community leaders about how their tradition coexists with others and how each leader experiences life in Kentucky as a person of faith. Respectful conversation and creating a compassionate environment for members of Centre’s community to share their stories is vital. Predetermined questions will initially guide the panelists’ conversation to introduce interfaith dialogue. However, throughout the Convocation, students will be encouraged to electronically and anonymously submit relevant questions that may be asked to the panelists for further discussion. The panelists are: Ms. Sudha Chopra, representing Sikhism; Abbott Tyson Davis of the Lexington Zen Center; and Fr. Norman Fischer of Lexington Catholic High School and Centre Class of 1995.
