The Rothko Chapel and the Magdalen Community present Compassion: Key to Peace? Discussion and Reflection Series.
The Rothko Chapel and the Magdalen Community present a series of reflections and dialogues on compassion throughout the month of June. The Reverend Betty Adam, Resident Canon Theologian of Christ Church Cathedral and representative of the Magdalen Community, will facilitate the programs. The series takes as its inspiration The Charter for Compassion initiated by Karen Armstrong, a well-known author and spokeswoman for peace among religious traditions. Unveiled in November 2009, The Charter for Compassion identifies compassion as an essential ingredient for global harmony.
Join us on Sundays as several amazing musicians celebrate The Charter and its message through the artistry of readings, music and dance. The Wednesday dialogue will feature speakers from various spirtual walks of life
