Interfaith Gathering
Against Hate
Friday, August 25, 2017
5:30 pm - 9:00 pm
San Francisco
In collaboration with our partners at the
Jewish Community Relations Council,
San Francisco Interfaith Council, the
Jewish Community Center of San Francisco, and
the San Francisco based Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund,
we are planning a response to the gathering
in San Francisco on Saturday, August 26th at Crissy field. This
is not a reaction, not a confrontation, but a response of love, community, and diversity. We invite all our members, along with
the entire San Francisco Jewish and interfaith community, to join
us for a very special interfaith peace and justice Shabbat service
in the Emanu-El Main Sanctuary on Friday,
August 25th.
We warmly invite all who wish to join us for this celebration of who we are:
Friday, August 25th, Congregation Emanu-El, 2 Lake Street
5:30 pm - 6:30 pm hors d'oeuvres & refreshments
6:30 pm - 7:45 pm Interfaith Sabbath Service
followed by dessert

Interfaith Gathering
for Peace
Saturday, August 26, 2017
12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
San Francisco
There will be a service of readings and prayers that will begin at 12:30 pm with a welcome by our dean, Malcolm Clemens Young. The service will include three speakers who have worked for peace and justice: Rita Semel, the Rev. Amos Brown and the Rev. Vicki Gray. At the end of the service, the Rt. Rev. Marc Handley Andrus, Bishop of California, will bless a group that will walk together from the cathedral to the "Peace, Music and Laughter" event at Civic Center, billed as a family-friendly arts festival headlined by singer Michael Franti.
While the service is taking place inside the cathedral, there will be craft activities and a labyrinth walk for peace for children and families outside on the cathedral plaza.
