“[My people] lost everything: They don’t have a home, they don’t have their church, they don’t have their beloved town,” said Grace Park, associate pastor at Pacific Palisades Presbyterian Church.https://t.co/w6PxIn5BGh

I love how this article by ⁦@NajeebaSyeed⁩ emphasizes the role of faith to help with healing and not on blaming any entity for the fires, & her daughter and her friends demonstrated this love for community through practical actions. ⁦@SoooMD⁩ https://t.co/ZFbMwtrZYW

Even as local faith leaders mourn the loss of their sacred spaces to the California wildfires, they’ve been banding together, offering words of comfort and practical help to those affected.

We’re so proud of our @AugsburgU Interfaith Scholar, Josh Maynard and his friends for serving as election chaplains today! “We are set up at 3 polling sites in the area to provide non-partisan interfaith emotional and spiritual support for voters”, he says

[Augsburg University @AugsburgU]

At this fall's Batalden Convocation, Augsburg faculty Iva Patel, Shayna Sheinfeld, and Najeeba Syeed reflected on resources from Hinduism, Judaism, and Islam that support and empower survivors of trauma. It was an honor to come together and discuss these topics in this space.

Taking a moment to reminisce about how green campus can get before it's all covered in leaves—which we also love, to be fair. 😍🌿🍂

Was lovely to be a part of the Batalden Convocation @AugsburgU this year on trauma and religion. Special thanks to interfaith scholars who asked questions!
