PEACE MEAL: An Interfaith Gathering

Join friends and neighbors from a variety of faiths and perspectives for the PEACE MEAL! Come to the table for an evening of food, music, poetry and prayers for peace!

ABOUT THE PEACE MEAL:
For 10 years, an organization called Art of Peace Tyler celebrated the United Nations International Day of Peace (September 21) by hosted a variety of events to promote a spirit of creativity, compassion and community through partnerships, fellowship, dialogue, social action, music, poetry and art. This included an annual "PEACE MEAL" where folks from different faiths, perspectives and walks of life could gather around the table for a shared meal.

Although Art of Peace no longer exists formally as an organization, Open Table Faith is working together with several community-minded folks to continue the interfaith PEACE MEAL. We believe that now, in a time of deep division and polarization, it is more important than ever for us to cross the difference divide to fellowship together as neighbors and friends.

We'll all come to the table together on Thursday, November 19 at 6pm at First Christian Church in Tyler, TX for our second annual PEACE MEAL. It's a great chance to gather with friends old and new in the spirit of peace, love and mutual understanding.

The meal will be catered by a local Tyler restaurant. The cost is $10 per person, but if cost is prohibitive and you want to attend, please let us know.
