Join us on Sunday, January 12, 2025 at 11am in person or on ZOOM when we welcome first time guest speaker, Kubra Karagoz to present
"M. Fethullah Gülen and A Muslim Scholar's Impact on the World "
Ms. Karagoz will introduce us to the impact of M. Fethullah Gülen, a Turkish teacher, scholar, author and preacher who was beloved by members of the international movement he started. We at LUUF became aware of Mr. Gülen from our dealings with members of the Peace Island Institute that he founded. Mr. Gülen was the spiritual leader of a movement for social and civic reform, known as the Hizmet (“service”) movement or the Gülen movement. He emphasized education, interfaith and intercultural dialogue, science, democracy, and spirituality, while condemning violence. Mr. Gülen was a controversial figure in Turkey, and as a result spent his last years living and teaching in Pennsylvania where he passed away this past October. Our condolences go out to his many followers.
Everyone is encouraged to stay for Coffee and Conversation after the service.
