Rev. Mitra Jafarzadeh and Rabbi Jonathan Cohen lead this service.

Rabbi Jonathan Cohen and Rev. Mitra Jafarzadeh have been friends for many years. In the past year, the two have been working together to bring our understanding of deep interfaith/intercultural work to the service of the larger community. How do we find ways across the divide? How do we cultivate healing in a hurting world? What might each of us do to help create deeper, more lasting justice so that everyone can thrive?

Rev Mitra Jafarzedeh, now retired from the UU ministry, focuses on using her skills in pastoring and coaching to help individuals and groups live with integrity and grace. Her company, Direct Light Consultation, uses individual coaching, group facilitation, and public speaking / teaching to help people move from good to better.

Jonathan Cohen is an Israeli born scholar and rabbi who served as faculty member, director of an academic center, campus dean, and senior rabbi. Jonathan has been a board member of arts, social service, and denominational as well as interfaith organizations. He brings extensive experience in teaching and mentoring, coaching, organizational consulting, governance support, fundraising and budgeting, human resources, project management, and community building and organizing.
