Center Faith Interfaith Intersectional Forums in 2021
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Center Faith, the multitude of denominations that make up Center Faith are coming together to remember, reflect, share their stories, and celebrate the commonalities that bring them together.
On July 6th, Center Faith began their intersectional forums by answering the question “Why is it important to record our history?”

On July 27th, Center Faith began inviting different members of the faith community to reflect on the AIDS Quilt, where they were in their faith journey, and trace the changes from then to today by answering the questions “What was your community experience with the Names Quilt?” and “How did you faith and faith community support you during this time?”

Volunteers Needed for Capital Pride Interfaith Service
The Capital Pride Interfaith Service is an “integrated service” respectfully demonstrating the breadth, depth, and sincerity of our faith, exposing the lie that anti-gay fundamentalists have a monopoly on faith and religion. We take pride that our community expresses its religious faiths in a myriad of ways, each sacred and revered with years of tradition. This event is with input from across the community annually by Center Faith. The 37th Anniversary Pride Interfaith Celebration will feature the theme that coincides with the Capital Pride celebration.
We are looking for volunteers to help plan the event, as well as help promote the event and provide support during the service.
For more information Contact: Eric Eldritch, (202) 309-5486 e.eldritch@thedccenter.org
