Edward and Eunice received an award
For the last couple of years we
have been actively involved in trying to promote interfaith discussions
in Memphis between Temple Israel, Balmoral Presbyterian Church, and
Masjid As-Salaam. On March 1, 2008, we were honored at a major
function of the Muslim community for this work. The plaque was
awarded at a function at the Germantown Performing Arts center, with an
audience of several hundred. Present to give a brief address and help
award the plaque was our representative in Congress, Steve
Cohen. (Reproduction of Plaque, text is reproduced
below it).
Text:
Muslims in Memphis,
Presented to
Edward(Chip) and Eunice Ordman
For your extraordinary exemplification of interfaith,
For your steadfast commitment to the cause of Peace and
Reconciliation,
For your Courage and Bravery in forging your good efforts forward
against the grain,
Traveling the world to see for yourselves,
You set the example for others to open our minds,
You open your doors for others to stretch our hands,
In peace,
In peace may you always go.
The sixth Annual
Muslims in Memphis Month,
Germantown. TN
March 1, 2008
