    The Hank Center is again proud to sponsor the Catholicism in Dialogue series this fall. This marks our fourth year of programming and we are particularly excited about responding to Pope Francis' call for action and dialogue during this, an *Extraordinary Jubilee* year. In an attempt to reflect on the themes of mercy, forgiveness, and solidarity found in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, our distinguished panel from our LUC campus will include Dr. Devorah Schoenfeld (Professor of Jewish Studies), Dr. Michael Murphy (Director of Catholic Studies), and Mr. Omer Mozaffar (Lecturer and Muslim Chaplain). In addition, we will be hearing a variety of student voices in an effort to articulate the ways that acts of mercy contribute to stronger communities and the undermining of mistrust and misunderstanding.
