Why Must I Suffer?

The topic has been chosen and the speakers finalized for the next Interfaith Event. The title of the Interfaith Event is “Why Must I Suffer”. The event will be held November 9th from 7:00-8:30 pm. There are six speakers for the event. The speakers are:
Arjai Rinpoche, Buddhist Monk
Robert Rogers, Catholic (http://intothedeep.org/)
Dr. Prasad Mantravadi, Hindu, Radiation Oncology Associates, Physician
Amani Elhefni, Muslim, Universal Education Foundation Islamic School,
Principal
L. Michael Spath, Protestant, D.Min., Ph.D.Religious Studies - Department

The purpose of the Interfaith Events is to learn about other faiths through a common topic or experience. The topic of suffering, which is a universal experience, is dealt with in all religions. I foresee a thought provoking evening. Hopefully you can attend the event.
