The LA Stake is pleased to announce that the Los Angeles Interfaith Concert is scheduled! We appreciate having the support from several faith communities connected through the Interreligious Council of Southern California, which served as the catalyst for bringing everyone together!

We currently have six participating faith communities representing:
✝️Christian
🕉️Hindu
✡️Jewish&
☪️Islamic

traditions. Each will present approximately ten minutes of music: vocal and/or instrumental—reflecting its own sacred and cultural tradition.

The concert theme, “Seasons of Love,” opens the evening with a message of our shared humanity, unity, and peace. The finale, “Hold On: Change Is Comin’,” sends the audience home with a message of hope for a better future. Both the opening and finale will be directed by Larry Dennis of First AME Los Angeles.

Included is a lively, multilingual arrangement of “This Little Light of Mine” as an audience participation piece, incorporating several of the languages represented by performers. Karen Hernandez Cervantes, a highly regarded gospel pianist, will accompany this selection.

Please join us for this free event with parking!
