Prayer in America PBS Special

Dear WISDOM Sisters:

Below is an invitation to a very special event. Detroit Public Television will be doing a joint TV program on June 23rd with the WorldViews Seminar at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. I will be part of this seminar which runs the entire week of June 23-27th, and I am very excited about learning more about the many religions in the Detroit Metro area. Please see the information below, and join us at the Prayer in America PBS special.

For those of you that have signed up for the WISDOM/Birmingham Temple potluck dinner and panel discussion Friday evening, June 6th, called “Five Women: Five Journeys – How Different Are We?”, we have over 100 people registered for the dinner, with many more coming just for the Sabbath service and panel discussion. Stay tuned for pictures on the website and in the newsletter.

WISDOM President


Greetings all,

On Monday afternoon on June 23rd at 4 PM, Detroit Public Television will be joining with the Worldviews Seminar, the University of Michigan - Dearborn, Christ Episcopal Church, Dearborn and the Michigan Round Table for Diversity and Inclusion to present "Prayer in America." The event is being held at the College of Arts, Sciences and Letter auditorium on the UoM-D campus.

This two-part PBS production is a challenging and revealing documentary about the place of Prayer in American life. An Interfaith panel of religious leaders will join in a public discussion after each segment and a light meal will be served.

You are cordially invited to attend because of your involvement with our religious communities of Southeast Michigan. It is the hope of all of the sponsors that this event will build upon and encourage the interfaith dialogue that is occurring in our communities.

We hope that you will seriously consider attending. And please feel free to share this with others.

Peace,
Dan Appleyard
