Oxfordshire Bahá’ís are holding an interfaith celebration on Thursday 15 November at 7.30pm to mark Interfaith Week.

The Fellowship of St Ethelwold is extending the hand of friendship to anyone who wants to attend its special interfaith meeting of worship, sharing and reflection to mark the week.

Interfaith Week runs from 18 to 27 November. Its aim is to increase understanding between people of religious and nonreligious beliefs, to foster good interfaith relations at all levels, and to increase awareness of the different and distinct faith communities in the UK.

In particular the week aims to celebrate and build on the contribution which members of faith communities make to their neighbourhoods and to wider society.

For more details about the event at The Fellowship of St Ethelwold, please get in touch with your regular Bahá’í contact.

Abdu’l-Baha told Bahá’ís, during his Paris Talks: “Do not be content with showing friendship in words alone, let your heart burn with loving kindness for all who may cross your path.” (From: Abdu’l-Baha, Paris Talks, p. 15)
