Abrahamic Traditions Dinner

Abrahamic Traditions Dinner The theme of the program was "Fasting in Abrahamic Traditions" since Muslims around the world observe the month of Ramadan in which they fast 30 days. Three speakers from three Abrahamic faiths; Rabbi Eugene Levy, George Hankins Hull, and Dr. Mehmet Ulupinar.

This dinner was the first one in Little Rock and will continue to take place every six months for the members of the faith community.
