"Tree of 40 Fruits"

GREETINGS OF PEACE!

The Southern California Parliament of the World’s Religions (SCCPWR) is one of the prominent Peace-Making Interfaith organizations in Southern California.

On October the 14th, 2017 we will be joyfully celebrating our 10th Anniversary and acknowledging many local interfaith leaders and organizations with whom we have collaborated for the last decade. YOU ARE INVITED to this landmark event!

EARLYBIRD tickets extended until 10/10

We are delighted to inform you that Larry Greenfield, the Executive Director of the global Parliament, Chicago will be joining our celebration.

As you perhaps know, our organization was launched on February 2007 as a response to the global Parliament of the World’s Religions (PWR) held in Barcelona in 2004. We came back to Los Angeles infused with enormous enthusiasm, eager to promote the vision and mission of the Parliament here in Southern California. SCCPWR has convened over 25 interfaith events since it’s inception 10 years ago, both locally in the Los Angeles area as well as globally. We have also supported and co-sponsored scores of events of partner organizations.

Our first big event was the Challenge of Respect, hosted by the Ibn-Khattab Mosque near USC. Some 400 people attended the ambitious day-long event, which included prayer, meditation, artistic presentations, keynotes and 24 innovative workshops led by many prominent local interfaith and civic leaders. Since then we have continued to attract significant and diverse audiences to more than 25 events, including three major “SEEDS OF PEACE” conferences in 2011, 2013 and 2015 hosted by Soka Gokkai International, All Saints Church, Loyola Marymount University. Please visit our website for more information: www.sccpwr.org

Our October 14th event is dedicated to two main goals:

• To celebrate together with our “beloved community” the ten year history of SCCPWR as a significant volunteer Interfaith group. To this end we are collaborating with like-minded groups and indiividuals to make this a special occasion for convening a major gathering of interfaith activists and devotees in Southern California. We are eager to explore how we might work together more closely to promote the local objectives we collectively share to positively impact our city.

• To convene a lively panel of interfaith experts who can examine the present and future challenges our movement faces both locally and globally, including immigration, Islamophobia, homelessness, refugees, the endangered environment and other allied matters.

With warmest wishes and looking forward to having you with us on October 14th,

The SCCPWR Board
