ON THINGS THAT MATTER: When A Stranger Resides With You With Rev. Roy Almquist & Rabbi Alan Fuchs June 4, 7:30 p.m. Strangers and sojourners have always had a special place within the three faiths of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The sacred texts of all three are clear in the call to welcome and protect the foreigner in your midst (Leviticus 19: 33-34). But it seems there’s not a greater source of conflict between the religious traditions and government authority than this issue. What’s happened to “Give me your tired, your poor...”? Join us for a gracious discussion of this contemporary challenge as fresh as the evening news. Both the Rabbi and Reverend are well-respected Shannondell residents. 68
