Seminary Hosts Upcoming Interfaith Events
In response to the mass shooting at Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh's Squirrel Hill neighborhood, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary is coming together with faith leaders from across the city to host a number of events designed to help bridge our country's divides and engage in difficult conversations.

On Nov. 15, 2018, at 7:00 p.m. in Hicks Chapel, PTS will host "Woven Together: An Interfaith Response to the Shooting at Tree of Life Synagogue," a panel discussion addressing the challenges ahead and how faith leaders can respond to these traumatic events.
