A group of seven congregations around the Northern Virginia/Washington, DC region has spent more than a year engaged in an interreligious effort to build understanding and solidarity across differences. Even in this time of heightened bias and polarization, gathering and sharing our mutual humanity seeds hope.

Please join us, along with our partner faith communities, to celebrate their work together and the relationships that have been built as they pledge ongoing solidarity in the interest of peace, understanding, and safe communities. 

The Solidarity Pledge Ceremony will occur at the Historic Blenheim Interpretive Center (3610 Blenheim Boulevard, Fairfax, VA) on Sunday, September 15th, 3:00 pm-5:00 pm. Each community’s representatives will formally sign the pledge and share what it means to them. The ceremony will begin at 3:00 and end with a special performance by Sufi Melody. Light hors d’oeuvres and live music by a trio from the String Quartet of Northern Virginia will follow. We hope you will join us in the celebration!

 You may contact us directly with any questions at meagan@sharingsacredspaces.org or (817) 677-8933. This event is part of the Northern Virginia/Washington, DC Interreligious Communities Project with Sharing Sacred Spaces and local host Rumi Forum.
