ISLAM LECTURE On September 11, 2001 Mark Fichtel, a Larchmont resident and President of the New York Coffee, Sugar, and Cocoa Exchange, bolted from his building with a fleeing crowd. The next day he had his exchange up and running. Six months later he quit his job to study and teach Islam. This Wednesday Mark is holding a lecture entitled, “Islam: Quo Vadis” to trace the growth of Islam from its emergence in the Arabian Peninsula in the 7th century through the 1600s, as well as to discuss the challenges facing Islam today. The lecture is sponsored by At Home on the Sound and will be held in the Sts. John & Paul Church Rectory Room at 3:30 p.m. More info here.
