St. Hubert welcomed 55 people on Saturday, April 1, 2017 to an interfaith retreat. Together, we explored the topic of Grace-filled Hospitality: Practicing God’s Call to Love from three different faith and spiritual traditions. Rabbi Zari Weiss shared perspectives from Hebrew Scriptures and Jewish teachings. Patty Bowman offered insights from Christian Scriptures and Catholic teachings. Tony Dairyō Fairbank provided a distinctive Buddhist view on hospitality. Through most of a silent retreat, participants enjoyed harp music, personal and group prayer as well as time to reflect. Each wisdom tradition has a core insight that true hospitality begins with an open heart and genuine regard for the other. As we concluded the day, people felt renewed and refreshed. Some wanted to continue the interfaith conversation, perhaps leading to shared action.
