July 12 - 13, 2019 Sponsored by Wisconsin Conference Commission on Christian Unity and Interreligious Relationships Bishop Hee-Soo Jung invites you to join him for an Interfaith Retreat and Bus Tour in Madison, WI, on July 12–13, 2019. We will learn about our neighboring religious communities, exploring how they can strengthen our social witness and deepen our spiritual lives. The theme will be “What gifts do we have for each other?” On Friday afternoon we will share in discussions with a Buddhist priest, a Catholic scholar of religions, a Muslim scholar, a Rabbi, and our Bishop. On Friday evening small groups will car pool to either a Buddhist meditation group, an Eastern Orthodox Church for vespers, or a synagogue for a Shabbat service. On Saturday morning these groups will report back to the whole group and we will board a bus for the Deer Park Buddhist Center, the AHA Shiva Vishnu Temple, the Islamic Center of Madison, and Middleton’s Gurudwara Sahib (Sikh Temple). The tour will end with prayers at Bethany United Methodist Church in Madison. Registration Cost: $120.00 per person |
