The Jewish rabbi of the House of Prayer for All Peoples doesn’t want anyone to miss the special feeling he said will exist Sunday night during the free “Sacred Music Evening” at the Salt Lake Tabernacle of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

“The tabernacle here in Salt Lake City, it’s a very special building, because it was built by people who put everything they had into it, and you can feel the love in there,” Rabbi Alan Scott Bachman said Wednesday at a news conference, which will include choirs and religious dances.

“And, when you have people from different faiths and belief systems — each a part of God’s family — there is a vibration in that tabernacle that can’t be explained in words,” he said. “It’s a feeling. You really feel the presence of God in the Tabernacle when various faiths are in there together and we’re doing something that is really beautiful together.”

The 2025 Sacred Music Night will feature guests representing Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Islam, Buddhism, Native American spirituality and more. Elder Bruce Boucher, an Area Seventy will provide a host welcome from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Congregation Kol Ami Cantor Adam Davis will perform Jewish music with Tabernacle organist Bonnie Goodliffe. Carl Moore, who is Hopi and Chemehuevi, will perform a Northern Traditional Dance.
