Marissanne Lewis-Thompson/KRCU
Rev. Edie Bird of Christ Episcopal Church, Pastor Tyler Tankersley of First Baptist Church and Dr. Tahsin Khalid of the Islamic Center in Cape Girardeau will attend the interfaith dinner.

Good food and fellowship go hand in hand. Now a group of area faith leaders are taking that to the next level for what some say is the first of its kind in Cape Girardeau. On April 21 an interfaith dinner will be held at Christ Episcopal Church bringing together the religious and non religious communities. Three faith leaders who are taking part in this are Rev. Edie Bird of Christ Episcopal Church, Pastor Tyler Tankersley of First Baptist Church in Cape Girardeau and Dr. Tahsin Khalid who is a muslim and worships at the Islamic Center in Cape Girardeau.
