Three Faith Traditions Explored in CBS Special

13 April 2012

The program, an effort to introduce audiences in the United States to faith traditions with which many may not be familiar, will include a televised visit to Sri Maha Vallabha Ganapati Devasthanam, a Hindu temple in Flushing, New York and a depiction of a Jeshan ceremony at the Zoroastrian Association of Chicago Fire Temple. The show also features a look at the Bahá’í House of Worship in Wilmette, Illinois, long considered a national landmark.

 The CBS documentary will air in cooperation with the National Council of Churches, a consortium of Roman Catholic organizations, the Islamic Society of North America, the Union of Reform Judaism and the New York Board of Rabbis.
