Inter Faith in Action - Guidelines

We fear most what we do not know. But how do we begin to know and understand and develop ways of living alongside? In developing the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of inter faith relations many communities have found it possible, helpful even, to draw up guidelines; for meeting; for worship and the sharing of sacred space; for pastoral care in a variety of circumstances; for developing social projects. These are a few examples. If you come across something which you think should be shared more widely do contact us.
