“Our Neighbor’s Faith: Exploring other Faith Traditions”
11am Sunday, September 22 & 29.
Led by Paul Ingram, PLU Professor Emeritus.
Come explore different faith traditions and common threads in Christianity. We’ll also be discussing how the practice of interreligious dialogue with non-Christian religious Ways can deepen our own Christian faith as we open ourselves to the wisdom of Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, Jewish, and Islamic religious teachings and practices. The goal of interreligious dialogue is ‘creative transformation,’ the meaning of which we shall discover through our conversations.

Outside at Our Savior's Campaign
Thanks a Quarter Million
We are grateful! Since May, there's been a huge amount of work done on outside lighting, access, safety and play. Volunteers have logged countless hours, and more than 100 households have donated and pledged to reach our initial goal of $250,000! God is good, and the people of Our Savior's are generous!
There's more to come, and we're still climbing! Thank you.
