Ephraim Moravian Church Launches Film Series on Islam

Beginning Aug. 2, and continuing each Thursday through August, Ephraim Moravian Church will present an award-winning documentary film series on Discovering Islam. The intent is to give people a basic understanding of Islam and respond to the questions and perceptions of non-Muslims. All sessions are free and open to the public. Each Thursday, a different aspect of Islam is covered:  “Islam: Faith and History” (Aug. 2), “Islam: An American Faith” (Aug. 9), “Women in Islam” (Aug. 16), “Islam: A Faith Hijacked” (Aug. 23), and “Christians and Islam” (Aug. 30).

The Ephraim Moravian Church is located at 9970 Moravia St. The programs begin at 8 am with a half-hour film and half-hour of discussion. Continental breakfast is provided.
