Join our partner in process, the University of La Verne, for a film screening and interfaith panel discussion of Mission: Joy – Finding Happiness in Troubled Times on Tuesday, February 22 at 6:30pm.

The event is offered in-person at the Ludwick Center Sacred Space and virtually. For virtual information, please register below. We will watch the film together (1.5 hours) followed by a 45-minute discussion led by a panel of interfaith leaders from our community. To join virtually, please register here.

Mission: Joy is a profound and jubilant exploration of the remarkable friendship between Archbishop Desmond Tutu and His Holiness the Dalai Lama, two individuals who have endured great hardships and who have carried the burden as world leaders dedicated to bringing justice to and fighting authoritarianism in their communities. Their greatest defiance of all, however, appears to be their ability to maintain a mischievous and playful spirit in the face of their circumstances.

Covid Protocols: All person’s attending in-person must complete a Daily Health Check before entering the University.  On the day of the event, please go to this this link to complete the Daily health Check.  After completing the form, you will receive an email with your health check results.  You will be required to show the results (showing a green check-mark) upon entering.  You can either print out your results and bring a paper copy or show your email confirmation on your phone.

The event is sponsored by a coalition of interfaith groups in the La Verne community: The Office of Religious and Spiritual Life at the University of La Verne, Claremont Interfaith Council, Upland Interfaith Council, and the Inland Valley Interfaith Working Group for Middle East Peace.

We hope you will join us in person or virtually!
