“Who could imagine that the Unity Walk would start with a Muslim call to prayer in Washington, DC’s largest synagogue, or that Evangelical Christians, Mormons and Jews would speak over Mosque loudspeakers and that people of all faiths would sing Amazing Grace from the Islamic Center, or take a spiritual walk with Gandhi’s grandson.” – Kyle Poole (Founder)
