"Free Trip to Egypt", Discussion & Dinner at Worcester Islamic Center Sat., Nov. 2, 4 PM

I don't belong to or promote any traditional faith or religion. I believe in a collective consciousness and making the most of living in the present. But not too long ago, I think because of my membership as an elected representative to our town's Westborough Diversity and Inclusion Committee, I was asked to check out an interfaith organization that was just getting off the ground. That group became the Central Massachusetts Connections in Faith (CMACIF) committee, a terrifically energetic collection of diverse people of diverse faiths and opinions focused, entirely positively, on building bridges & friendships across cultures.

To do that, we facilitate events featuring individual faith groups and what and how they practice their faith followed by round table discussions with all those who attend. Our next event is an afternoon/evening with a movie, "Free Trip to Egypt", that airs at 4 PM this Saturday, Nov. 2, to be followed by a discussion and dinner all at the Worcester Islamic Center in Worcester, MA, as shown above.

If you're local to Worcester, CMACIF and I most heartedly invite you to attend. If you're not local to Worcester and Central Massachusetts, think of the magic an event like the one we'll have this Saturday could have where you live - and I'm glad to lend a hand (brucetretter@gmail.com/508-446-7790).
