Ramadan Interfaith Event

Ramadan Mubarak!
For the last 20 years, Pacifica Institute Nor Cal organized and facilitated wonderful interfaith fast-breaking dinners, called iftar dinners in faith houses, community centers, and homes. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the concern for public health prevents us from gathering in person this year again; we still believe in the importance of meaningful connections in other ways.
This year we will be organizing a “virtual” Ramadan gatherings with distinguished speakers with the theme of “Ramadan: Celebration of Compassion and Unity”, interfaith prayers for humanity, call to prayer, adhan, and more to feel and share the Ramadan joy with friends. Join us!
Saturday, May 1

Hope: Finding Good in an Imperfect World
2021-02-18 - 2021-02-26
Hearts on Fire is a nine-day retreat in everyday life that offers the opportunity to nourish our faith and grow closer to God. This series consists of Masses with special reflections around a certain theme. This year the theme is Teach Us to be Generous, based on St. Ignatius’ “Prayer for Generosity”. Masses feature music, a prayer to St. Francis Xavier, and prayers of petition and thanksgiving. We also offer individual blessings and the opportunity to pray with the relics of St. Francis Xavier.
If it is not possible for you to attend all nine days please try to come to some of them. The novena will be conducted within all our daily and weekend Masses. You will find this a wonderful way to start your Lenten season. The Novena begins Thursday, February 27, and will end Friday, March 6 at St. Ignatius Church, 3235 Arden Way, Sacramento.
