Conflicts in faraway lands and ideological differences make these three religious groups unlikely cohabitants in a shared space, but here the groups form a microcosm of peaceful coexistence united by tragedy. In January, the Pasadena synagogue burned down in the Eaton fire leaving its Jewish congregation in need of a place to grieve and worship.

The Methodist church, already a host to Islamic Center members as a satellite worship location, welcomed the Jewish congregation.

“We are trying to cultivate an ‘island of grace’ in the midst of differences that we are told should divide us,” said Aitken.

Under this arrangement, all three Abrahamic faiths are worshiping under one roof at 500 East Colorado Boulevard.

“I can’t think of another church that can say the same,” said Aitken.

It's almost like people understand we all need each other as opposed to believing in this divisive bullshit.
