Over the past year, we have been confronted with unspeakable tragedy and sorrow, threats to our democracy, and ugly incidents of religious bias and bigotry.
Despite these hardships, ICJS programs and events have created moments of genuine human connection marked by patience, humility, curiosity, courage, and—sometimes—even laughter.
In the difficult work of doing dialogue and building interreligious communities, there are moments of pain and of anger. But as we keep at it, we find moments of shared empathy, and understanding.
This is how we have chosen to meet the moment—together.
ICJS committed to a productive year of creating, hosting, leading, and facilitating educational programming for diverse audiences.
If Americans want a multireligious democracy where people of all religions and no religion can engage as equals in civic life, we need organizations dedicated to making that vision possible—we need ICJS.
