Interfaith
We believe the work of bridging the faith divides of our community is essential to support human dignity and bring about genuine empowerment, security, and self-determination for every member of our community, irrespective of their spiritual belief or affiliation.
One of the ways we do that is through Interfaith Dialogue. All faiths possess an inherent beauty and offer their followers a way to live a more peaceful, kind and humane life. Islam is no exception. Our Interfaith work seeks to help the North Texas community understand the beauty, compassion and justice that lies at the heart of the faith.
We want to create a community of peace and understanding in North Texas and would be happy to join with you to educate your place of worship, your school or your business on Islam. Help be a #PeaceChampion and Request a Speaker.
A better, just, and equal world is possible.
