Grand Rapids Mayor George Heartwell declared 2012 to be The Year of Interfaith Understanding -- a year-long effort to cultivate community interest and engagement of all faith traditions in West Michigan. Fred Stella, president of the Interfaith Dialogue Association, discusses the effort and events that make up the community focus. Stella additionally previews the West Michigan Hindu Temple's open house set for Sunday, March 11 -- also part of the Year of Interfaith Understanding events.

 

MUSIC

Music featured this week on Catalyst is from jazz musician Sonny Fortune, with his album A Better Understanding, with the song “Awakening.”
