Thursday is the gateway to the weekend. The weekend is when we spend time with those we love, take a break from our work routine and, for many, visit our place of worship. What if Thursday could mean something more? What if Thursday became a day for all faith traditions and worldviews in Jacksonville to come together before going our separate ways on the weekend?

Introducing Theology Thursday: It is a positive place of prayer for all people.
At 6 p.m. every Thursday, we will gather on a virtual platform (link below) to be led in prayer by a local faith leader. The gathering is open to all and will serve as a reminder of all we hold in common. Theology Thursday is a collaboration between OneJax Institute at the University of North Florida, The Istanbul Cultural Center at Jacksonville and The Interfaith Center of Northeast Florida.
