                                    rather than the usual room on the ground floor near the main entrance.

TO BE DISCUSSED:  “WELCOMING THE STRANGER”

At this forum we will be exploring how the teachings and traditions of our faiths

influence whom we regard as strangers and how we react to them.

This should be fertile ground for sharing beliefs and practice. It touches on some

challenging issues – for example ‘Who is my neighbour’. There is also the challenge of

how we translate our beliefs into action.

Before opening the forum up to participants, a number of quotations from the scriptures of

different faiths will be considered and some members of the committee will talk both about the

teachings and traditions of their faith as well as giving practical examples of ‘welcoming the stranger’.

Please come along and join in!  Please also pass on details of this meeting to others who may be interested in attending.
