Better Together Day
Date and Time
Tuesday, April 14, 2015
Description
On 4/14,
Grand Valley State University
is joining hundreds of other colleges in a national movement:
Interfaith Youth
Core’s
Better Together Day
.
Want to promote
understanding and inclusion
in our
Laker community
?
There are three ways you can participate
:
SIGN THE PLEDGE
Right Here, Right Now (www.ifyc.org/bettertogetherday)
It’ll only take a minute of your time to sign your name! If 100 people
sign from our institution, we’ll be awarded free registration for
students to attend an Interfaith Leadership Institute this summer.
Pledging simply means you’re putting your name to a movement that
builds understanding and combats ignorance.
ASK BIG QUESTIONS in a BALL PIT
Tuesday April 14, Noon – 2pm,
Allendale Clock Tower
Since Better Together Day’s challenge this year is to talk to
someone from a different religious or non-religious background than
yourself, Better Together and Hillel are providing a special space for
Lakers to engage in dialogue with others around interfaith topics.
Just drop by any time between 12 and 2, meet someone, and be inspired
by their story.
INTERFAITH SERVICE & DIALOGUE (Lib 100/201 approved)
Tuesday April 14, 8pm-10pm, Kirkhof 2215/2216
Sponsored by the Catholic Student Association, this event will
have students from faith and non-faith backgrounds discuss their
backgrounds in small groups while decorating lunch bags for Kids Food
Basket! Coming together to learn about our neighbors while serving our
community, what could be a better end to the day? Snacks will even be
provided.
Events coordinated by Better Together, Catholic Student
Association, Hillel, and the Kaufman Interfaith Institute
