The first meeting of the IFNC for this year will be on Thursday, October 16th at the Beth Tzedec synagogue (1325 Glenmore Trail SW) at 7:30pm.
The theme for this year is: Issues Arising When Practising Your Faith in 21st Century Calgary
Rabbi Jordan Ofseyer will be the speaker.
We will have our usual small group discussons after he finishes, and weather permitting, have tea in the Sukka.
InterFaith Network of Calgary (IFNC) is an informal and grassroots group of Calgarians, belonging to several faith traditions, who have come together to promote goodwill and mutual understanding.
We believe that this objective is best achieved by interaction and dialogue among the followers of different faiths. This belief is based on our conviction that while the general tendency is to highlight the differences among different faiths, a deeper study would reveal that we have more in common than is generally believed.
We hope that through these gatherings, we will encourage mutual respect and peace in our community.
We meet once a month to discuss questions related to our personal spirituality and religious practice. The venues of the gatherings rotate among the places of worship.
