MIFA will present
One Light, Many Colors, a series of free weekly programs on world religions each Thursday at 10 a.m. from July 21 to August 18 at Town Village Audubon Park retirement community, 950 Cherry Road.
The series title is inspired by the image of a stained glass panel, which projects a myriad of colors from a common source of light. The program, open to the public, was organized by Linda Marks, MIFA’s Inter-Faith Coordinator, and Shawna Welch, Director of Livewell at Town Village. It is designed to promote dialogue and understanding among people of all faiths.

“From its earliest beginnings, MIFA has represented and welcomed people of all faiths, said Sally Jones Heinz, MIFA executive director. “MIFA’s vitality is the synergy of people coming together not just to solve problems, but to promote and experience the richness and dignity of human lives.”
