F25-18 Religious Faiths and Their Places of Worship - Part 1 NEW
Class | Registration closed 8/31/2025
Part 1 classes will be about three religions originating in Asia, and we will visit their places of worship. They include Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and/or Sikhism (TBD).
The first class of each religion will concentrate on learning about the basic beliefs (at Strongsville Fire Station), while the second session will be a “field trip” to visit the place of worship for that religion. For example, on the first week we learn about Hinduism and then the second week we meet at the Hindu temple on Ridge Road in Parma. The other two religions will follow the same pattern.
Class members will be responsible for their own transportation to the various places of worship. SEE SPECIAL NOTES FOR VISITS and LOCATIONS
