10th Annual Los Angeles Faith in Action Conference
Join us for our 10th Annual Los Angeles Faith in Action Conference on Tuesday, October 4th at The California Endowment.
The annual conference is the only one of its kind bringing together pastors, ministry leaders & congregants of faith communities. The conference provides plenary speakers & workshops on health epidemics, human sexuality & LGBT issues—using language that faith community understands.
This year's conference will explore the theme, "Understanding & Supporting the Pulse of the LGBTQ Community," exploring the healing process & impact on local community after the tragedy at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
Speakers from faith institutions, academia & public health are invited to engage in & discuss recent trends that explore the obstacles faced by Latino, LGBTQ & other under-served communities. The Wall-Las Memorias Project has created this conference in this critical time of need for the purpose of uplifting spirits, nourishing the soul, and educating from the heart.
