WFWP Grand Junction, CO: Interreligious Sharing - January Program

Sharing program centered on the theme “How Does Your Faith Help You Master Your Emotions?” Participants shared personal religious perspectives and presented a 30-second to one-minute “elevator speech” highlighting their core beliefs. The exchange fostered mutual understanding, reflection, and deep appreciation for the wisdom found across faith traditions.
