interfaith Thanksgiving Service, the Monday before Thanksgiving. This year it will be held at 7 p.m. November 24, at the Palisades Lutheran Church , 15905 Sunset Boulevard. No matter your religious denomination, and whether you’ve returned home or are still living away after the fire, all are welcomed back for this service.

The theme this year is “Foundations of Faith: A time to Renew and Reconnect.”

Community members are invited to come together to share in this celebration of thanksgiving and unity as the clergy from eight houses of worship lead the service.

The religious leaders each take a part of the service, with one person chosen to give the inspirational lecture, and other clergy to read special passages. The program runs less than an hour and the message imparted is one of the nicest ways to celebrate the start of the holiday season.

The service, which has been in existence for more than 30 years, is a true Palisades tradition. As divided as people are in the community over so many topics, we all agree about the love of our town. The clergy reflect that division and unity and monthly meet to discuss religious issues and challenges.

Participating will be clergy from St. Matthew’s Episcopal Parish, Corpus Christi Catholic Church, Palisades Lutheran, Pacific Palisades Presbyterian Church, Kehillat Israel, Community United Methodist Church, Self-Realization Fellowship: Lake Shrine, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
