An interfaith service, “Poems, Prayer and Pie,” will be presented at the Sag Harbor Presbyterian (Old Whalers’) Church at 7 p.m. on Thursday, November 16.
According to the Reverend Nancy Remkus, 13 local clergy and religious leaders will celebrate the event.
“At this time of tumult in our world, the clergy coming together should be a wonderful sign of unity and the hope for peace,” she said via email.
Remkus, an interfaith minister who serves as the church’s pastor, said representatives of the Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Buddhist faiths will take part in the service.
Remkus said there would be music, including traditional hymns played by Walter Klauss on the church’s 1845 organ. The handbell choir will play, the Reverend Adrian Pratt, the pastor of the Bridgehampton Presbyterian Church, will perform an original song, and the Thunderbird Sisters from the Shinnecock Nation will also sing.
The offertory collection will go to the Medicine Lodge at the Shinnecock Territory.
