St. David's is proud to support Interfaith Action of Central Texas (iACT) and their virtual fall fundraiser: A Night Under One Sky. This year’s program, The Path to Racial Justice: Allies and Co-Conspirators for Good, explores how we as individuals and as faith communities can promote racial reconciliation and anti-racism.
The program features Bishop Michael Curry, Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church, who will inspire us to stand in love and be brave in our desire for racial reconciliation.
Panel participants include: Dr. Edwin Dorn, professor and former Dean of the LBJ School of Public Affairs and a lion for civil rights; Chris Hyams, CEO of Indeed.com; Dr. Daryl Horton, pastor at Mt. Zion Baptist Church, an historic Black church in east Austin; and Muna Hussaini, activist, high tech guru, and co-founder of Muslim Space.
