Interfaith for Peace
Saturday, September 22, 2012 11:30 a.m.
Theosophical Society in America, 1926 N. Main St., Wheaton, IL
Please join this ecumenical group as they offer prayers of peace from many faiths—an event which, this year, coincides with the United Nations’ International Day of Peace. One significant benefit derived from this gathering is that it draws attention to the shared aspirations of religious traditions and the goal of resolving differences through dialogue. Lively conversation follows when we enjoy a homemade meal, compliments of Mazher.
Mazher F. Ahmed was born and educated in India. Believing that interreligious work is essentially about breaking down barriers and building bridges, she is involved in a number of interfaith endeavors. Mazher has worked with the Council for a Parliament of the World’s Religions since 1990 and is an emeritus trustee for the Council.
Donations appreciated.
If you plan to attend or would like to represent your tradition by speaking, please RSVP to Mazher at hmahmed@hotmail.com
