The Muslim Students Association at Texas State University-San Marcos will host an evening of public dialogue about the role of Jesus Christ in Islam and Christianity, Wednesday, April 18, at 6 p.m. in Evans Liberal Arts Building 116.

The discussion, titled “The Message of Jesus,” is open to the public. Free food will be provided.

The Muslim Students Association at Texas State develops cooperation and understanding among Muslim students, students of other faiths and groups of non-faith, through respectful dialogue, congregational prayers and cultural activities. The association creates a forum where members of the Texas State community can ask questions and learn, and it works to maintain a friendly and supportive campus environment where individuals can live, study and work as Muslims.

More information about the Muslim Students’ Association is available by contacting Elizabeth Bishop, assistant professor, at (512) 245-3747 or via email at eb26@txstate.edu.
