Arrived Salt Lake City!

I'm in Salt Lake City and ready to begin the amazing experience of the Parliament of the World's Religions, 2015.  I am here with Dr. Jessica Guzman-Rea, the Director of the Intercultural Center at U of R and we have brought 8 students with us who are taking the course we are teaching on the Parliament.  Our students will have the opportunity to present at two workshops during the Parliament while also attending many others and having the unparalleled opportunity to observe worship in a vast array of religious traditions.  There will be music, dance, chanting, drumming, singing, and art from 50 religious traditions in 80 countries.  This is the olympics of interfaith!  The students have been preparing for this experience all semester and they are ready to go!
