| Summary: | This article describes an immersion experience, part of the program of the Annual Meeting of the Society for Pastoral Theology (SPT) in 2019. SPT meeting participants were invited to visit the Greater Denver Interfaith Alliance (GDIA), a collaborative faith-based organization located in downtown Denver. Pastoral theologian Doctor Carroll Watkins Ali, a Society member, together with Imam Abdur-Rahim Ali, Imam of Masjid Taqwa - the Northeast Denver Islamic Center - hosted and led the program. The author narrates the immersion experience, recounting the substance of the panel presentations and the ensuing questions and discussion. She includes photographs and comments contributed by members of SPT who responded to an invitation to share their reflections. GDIA models a collaborative approach to prophetic, multi-faith ministries that promotes the survival and liberation of African Americans and other at-risk populations in the greater Denver area. |
