ARKANSAS HOUSE OF PRAYER AND THE INTERFAITH CENTER HOST FIFTEENTH ANNUAL ‘LOVE THY NEIGHBOR’ EVENT

“Love Thy Neighbor: Be Still Together,” an interfaith celebration of hope, will be held Thursday, September 11, at Saint Mark’s Episcopal Church (1000 N Mississippi St, Little Rock, AR 72207). The event will also be live-streamed at www.youtube.com/user/theinterfaithcenter. The celebration will begin at 6 p.m. CST.

Love Thy Neighbor is an annual interfaith service that brings central Arkansas faith communities together for an evening of music, shared wisdom, and reflection. This year’s theme “Be Still Together” invites participants to explore moments of stillness and quiet reflection with one another as a way of strengthening and building community. Speakers from various religious backgrounds will share stories, poems, and prayers from their faith traditions, and local ensembles and musicians will invite participants into times of quiet reflection and collective harmony.. The Interfaith Food Festival will follow the service in the parish hall at Saint Mark’s with delicious vegetarian dishes prepared by local caterers and faith communities.

This year’s speaker is Dr. Rebecca Glazier. Dr. Glazier is an advocate for and practitioner of faith-based community engagement. She received her PhD from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2009 and taught for 16 years as a political science professor in the School of Public Affairs at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.

The event is free and open to the public. While no childcare will be provided, children are welcome at this event.
