At the end of the inter-faith service, the 20 or so Jews, many with kippahs, moved to a side alcove for Ma'ariv, their sunset service. The dozen or so Muslims went into a side room to say Maghrib, their sunset prayers. Both groups then joined the others in the basement for a kosher meal.
The church has long held Christian-Jewish services. Last year, disturbed by Islamophobia, it began an outreach to Muslims. In that spirit, Frydman-Kohl noted how Jews, Christians and Muslims tell the story of Abraham differently.
