Below are a few notes I have received since the event:
What a
magnificent evening of thoughtful exchange you assembled at Canterbury last
week. Congratulations on a really significant accomplishment. I wish I could
have attended the Taylor dialogue too.
This is
remarkable work; may you continue to provide our community with this most
sacred of sacraments: real, honest, meaningful connection.
Another great event. It is
comforting & encouraging to see that the similarities of the different
faiths far outweigh the differences. Exposed only to news media most would not
realize that. Thanks for another outstanding job as moderator. As a fellow Christian brother you are clearly
a shining example of the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Blessings to you.
Our Lord Christ is working through you to help bring peace into this
world. There is no greater work than what you are doing. I just
feel blessed to be a part of it, and I watch in amazement at your
accomplishment through His Hand.
The use of lay persons provided a
good transition to the normal relationship/dialogue among persons not trained specifically
in theology. An evolution from top down to horizontal communication.
You
should know just how impressed I have been with your work on this. You put
together a very clearly thought-out and executed event. Your comments leading into
the evening last night were stellar and your facilitation of the dialogue was
superb; you had a “light touch” (hard to accomplish). Well done Ramona!
Excellent diversity of faiths. Straight forward presentations of each perspective.

Email from someone who watched the event on youtube:
I've been
watching this morning, and I'm just captivated. I will be sure to attend the
next event. Your events are like the best of college--the stimulating,
fascinating discussion--without the test!
