Tri-Faith Initiative Day

July 15, 2009 by jyeates

Today your deputies will be wearing their Tri-Faith shirts on the floor of the House of Deputies and as we meet this afternoon for a Joint Session of both Houses for the discussion on the Triennial Budget (2010-12).

Yesterday the morning session ended with the presentation of a delegation of visitors from the ecumenical community who are attending GC. They were introduced by Bishop Chris Epting (from the Omaha Regional Office), who is deputy to the PB for Ecumenical and Interreligious Relations.

At the end of the introductions, a representative from the Christian, Jewish and Muslim faith traditions each sang a prayer and then ended by combining their voices into a sung Abrahamic blessing. It was beautiful and inspiring.
