The UUFSD Choir was one of five choirs to perform at the San Diego Interfaith 9/11 Memorial and Concert held at Spreckels Organ Pavilion in Balboa Park this afternoon. Their performance of “We Will Be a Shelter for Each Other”, directed by Gianna Drogheo and accompanied by Lynne Talley on the piano and Tina Rickard on the flute, was inspirational.
Over 500 people attended the memorial. In addition to the UUFSD Choir, the East County Mormon Choir, the Poway Interfaith Team, the Sikh Foundation of San Diego, Shri Mandhir Temple Choir, and the San Diego Jewish Men’s Choir performed.
Prayers for peace were presented by children of the Baha’i, Buddhist, Muslim, Catholic, Pagan, Hindu, Sikh, Unitarian Universalist, Church of Latter Day Saints, Jewish, and Protestant religions. Lauren Mercier, a YRUU member of our Fellowship, represented the Cluster of Unitarian Universalist Fellowships and Churches in San Diego County.
