Interfaith Dialogue Class

SCAPC members are invited to participate in a monthly Interfaith Dialogue class
hosted by the Rose Castle Foundation with Muslims, Christians and Jews from around the world.

Sessions are held on the 2nd Wednesday of each month from 10 a.m.-11:30 a.m. in the Land Building Lakeside Room or via Zoom. If interested in attending, please email ashley@scapc.org for further details. No preparation work is needed beforehand. Ashley will email attendees a reminder the day before with the PDFs that can be downloaded and used for the study session! Simply showing up with an open mind and heart is all that is needed.

What is The Rose Castle Foundation?

The Rose Castle Foundation is a peacebuilding organization largely tied to both Cambridge University and the Church of England and specializes in using Abrahamic faith peace techniques and dialogue to equip tomorrow's leaders with the skills, tools, and habits needed to transform conflict.

Learning Interfaith Etiquette

The only way we learn is through experience! Scholars from each religious tradition represented are trained in peace-work and will gently help teach attendees basic faith etiquette rules. No attendees are expected to know or even had had experience interacting with outside faith traditions in this sacred manner- so please, come and learn! However, if you’d like to be an overachiever and prepare extra, you are welcome to read the FAQs (click here).

On August 14, members of the Interfaith Dialogue Class visited the Masjid Abu Bakr Al Siddique mosque. They were greeted with baklava and a wonderful talk by Interfaith Representative Dr. Anwer Bashi before observing 1:30 prayers.
