Event
2010 Interfaith Community Breakfast
The Lane Institute of Faith & Education (LIFE) will host its 6th
annual Interfaith Community Breakfast on September 22. In his talk entitled "Dharma and Karma," University of Oregon
President Richard Lariviere, a Sanskrit scholar, will address the
relationship of these two ancient and fundamental Indian concepts to
the challenges confronting us today.
Since 2000, LIFE has provided interfaith opportunities to examine
different religious and spiritual traditions, philosophies, and
values. LIFE, a part of Lane Interfaith Alliance, seeks to foster
dialog and the deepening of understanding rather than indoctrination
to a particular viewpoint.
This year's breakfast will take place in conjunction with International Peace Day.
The five previous Interfaith Community Breakfasts were held on
September 11th, in response to the 2001 World Trade Center tragedy,
for the purpose of building understanding and cooperation among people
of diverse backgrounds.
The event will take place at the Hilton Hotel in Eugene. Tickets are also
available at First Christian Church (1166 Oak Street, Eugene).
Ticket prices (at the church):
$17.50 for regular admission, vegan or vegetarian
$25.00 for donors (breakfast plus $7.50 donation to LIFE)
$12.00 for students, vegan or vegetarian (students only please!)
$5.00 for coffee/tea
Online tickets include a small service fee added to the above.
Coffee/tea tickets can be purchased at the door. All others must be purchased in advance.
Deadline for the purchase of tickets is Sept 14, 2010. For more information: 541-344-1425.
