Circle of Palms
170 South Market (near Market and San Fernando) Downtown San Jose

Some 250 people— Christians, Jews and Muslims — gathered together to mark the conjunction of Ramadan, Rosh Hashana, the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi and World Communion Sunday. We shared in a brief service of prayers and blessings, and then joined in breaking the fast at sundown.

Our heartfelt thanks to all those who helped to make the gathering a success— members of the Steering Committee and Pariticpating Organizations, food preparers and donors.
