What makes a place a sanctuary, a place of worship, or a simply a sacred space? Is it about the space, the structure, the history or something else? Join the Ventura County Interfaith Community on February 22nd at 7:00 PM for a discussion of this fascinating topic. Among the questions that we’ll ask panelists from the Bahá’í faith, the Greek Orthodox Church and Judaism are: * What spaces do you consider sacred? * What makes them sacred? * What myths, legends, historical events contribute to making these spaces sacred? * Is there a protocol/behavior/dress requirement when entering, occupying or exiting a sacred space? * May anyone enter a sacred space at any time? If not, what are the conditions for admission? * How do you construct a sacred space? Is there a specific type of architecture? How do you consecrate it?This panel discussion will take place via Zoom.
