sacred site visits

Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice’s Interfaith Community Building Initiative invites you, and members of your congregation to participate in our popular Sacred Site Visits and Interfaith Fellowship—virtually, for now.  

To sign up, please fill out the survey here.

The Sacred Site Visits provide opportunities for participants to visit (virtually for now) houses of worship from a wide variety of faith traditions over the course of the year. The purpose of the “visits” is to learn about different faiths, and to build interfaith friendships.  The visits will occur once a month or so, beginning in February 2021. ​
SACRED SITE VISIT​ - PASSOVER EXPERIENCE
MARCH 25, 2021
As part of Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice's Sacred Site Visit program, participants took part in a Passover Experience, led by Rabbi Jonathan Biatch of Temple Beth El, Madison, WI and Rabbi Bonnie Margulis, Executive Director of WFVJ. The story of Passover was told, the symbols of the holiday explained, and some Passover foods sampled. Enjoy!
We want to spread the invitation far and wide, so please share this invitation with others in your congregation.  If your congregation is interested in hosting a visit, please answer the question on the survey.

Sign up now to register to join in this program. You will receive emails prior to each visit with background information on the faith community, a link to RSVP, and other relevant information.  

We are excited about the faith traditions we are offering.  We look forward to hearing from you!
Visits may include observing a worship service, hearing a talk by a faith leader about their tradition with time for Q&A, or a virtual tour of their house of worship, or any combination of these activities. Time will also be set aside for socializing with other participants. Each host faith group chooses which of these activities they will offer.  Later in 2021 we hope we can offer in-person events. For now, all visits will be conducted virtually. The silver lining is – you can be anywhere in Wisconsin and still able to visit faith communities in Madison, Milwaukee, Barneveld, and any where else.

Here is the visit schedule so far—check back frequently as more dates are set and more places of worship sign up:​
