A free interfaith service and potluck will return to Miami on Sunday, Nov. 15, bringing people of different faiths and beliefs together over a shared meal. The fourth annual Breaking Bread Breaking Bias starts at 11:15 a.m. at Unity on the Bay at Temple Israel.
The event is organized by Elevate Cities with founding partners Mosaic Miami, Temple Beth Am, Temple BethAm’s UnBiased Initiative and the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Miami. Live music and an ecumenical service will feature voices from Miami’s faith traditions, focused on unity. Afterward, guests will sit down to a potluck with guided conversation prompts designed to keep people talking.
No particular faith or belief is required to attend. Organizers cited Pew Research Center data showing about 11% of Miami adults practice a faith other than Christianity and 28% are religiously unaffiliated, and said the city has few places where people across those lines can meet face to face.
Matt Anderson, executive director of Mosaic Miami, said the goal is to give people an experience they rarely have. Elevate Cities is providing funding and promotion, and hopes the gathering can serve as a model for other cities.
Space is limited. Organizers ask guests to RSVP at bit.ly/breakingbread2026.
