Forest Grove schools Superintendent Jack Musser will bring eight years of interfaith experience with him Saturday when he speaks at the Interfaith Celebration Breakfast, which runs from 7:45 to 9 a.m. in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints gym, 2220 N.E. Jackson School Road in Hillsboro.

Hosted by the Inter-Religious Action Network of Washington County, the breakfast precedes the annual Intel/SOLV Washington County Clean & Green Project, a four-hour volunteer effort to improve the community.

Musser had been superintendent only a few weeks when Doug Timmons, pastor of the local Assembly of God church, stopped by to meet him.

As they talked, Musser came up with the idea of getting school people and faith people together for regular breakfasts to discuss mutual interests, such as children and families.
