The First Presbyterian Church of Rutherford hosted the Peace Islands Institute in a Friendship Gathering on November 15, 2011. We thank Stephen Adubato, DMD, for partnering with PII in organizing this wonderful gathering.
Steve Adubato welcomed the guests and made a short speech in the beginning. Dr. Mesut Sahin presented on behalf of PII Steve Adubato and Linda Zinn hand-made Turkish mugs.
Here is how Stephen Adubato, DMD, of the First Presbyterian Church described the program: "I would just like to send an email to thank you and the Interfaith Dialog Center for a warm and wonderful evening of fellowship and friendship. The participants attending through the First Presbyterian Church of Rutherford had an enjoyable evening of magnificent food, great conversation, and the exchanging of stories from life experiences. It was an evening of learning and respect between brothers and sisters of different backgrounds from which a greater understanding of each other's beliefs ensued. I thank you for giving us this opportunity".
We thank the Volunteers of the Peace Islands Institute for preparing the food, and Stephen Adubato for making the event possible
