No World
Peace Without Religious Peace
Our four part program is designed to critically
review recent developments in the quest for interreligious harmony.
We are searching for the wisdom embedded in
each Tradition that fosters interreligious cooperation and justice-making.

the pathway to true and holy convergence.

Peace In Every Step
An Interfaith Peace Project Program
Many are tempted to believe that
the quest for peace is illusionary.
Our
three part exploration of peace in every breath and step will reflectively
examine the contributions the world religious traditions have made to the quest
for peace.
Our goal is to provide
practical suggestions as to how we as individuals, citizens of country and
world can be and contribute the peace for which we long.

The Institute
for the Study of the Passion
The “Passion of Jesus” as
recorded in the New Testament Tradition is not simply or merely a presentation
of the sufferings of Jesus.
Our four
sessions will explore the execution of Jesus by Pilate in terms of his life
with God and for the oppressed.
Simply,
Jesus died in the manner of his self-giving life. Our series confronts the violence often
expressed in the proclamation of the Passion.
