What does religious pluralism look like on a local and urban scale? Explore several Bronx neighborhoods near Fordham University’s Rose Hill campus with Duffy fellow Benedict Reilly to find out. This 90-minute walking tour will stop at several sites embodying the borough’s diverse faiths and discuss religious history, community, and practice. Afterward, join us for coffee and conversation on Arthur Avenue!

Benedict Reilly is a 2021-2022 Duffy fellow and a junior double-majoring in theology and humanitarian studies at Fordham University College of Rose Hill. He recently edited and produced Queer Prayer at Fordham, a collection of reflections by Fordham community members, and he is heavily involved with Campus Ministry and the Center for Community Engaged Learning. This summer, Reilly will be traveling to Lebanon on a Tobin Travel Fellowship to research the French Jesuit and American Protestant missionary legacy in the region.

Please note that Fordham requires all visitors to campus (ages 5 and older) to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Booster shots will be required for all guests who are eligible. Please review the COVID-19 vaccination policy for more information.
