About The Gershenson Lecture
Focused on topics of religion, peace and ethics, the Gershenson Lecture is named in honor of Elliot Gershenson, President Emeritus of Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston. We offer special thanks to Rabbi Scott Hausman-Weiss, Paula Sutton, Katie Floyd Wang, and Kim Mabry for organizing this year’s Gershenson Lecture as part of the Interfaith Relations and Community Partnerships (IRCP) commitment to bring interfaith educational resources to the community.
