5th Annual Festival of Faith
Interfaith Council of Greater Portland
We live in a diverse world with different cultures, languages, traditions, and faiths. This diversity is represented in the Pacific Northwest and in Portland where many different faiths coexist. To promote peace and harmony, we must have a better understanding of each other. Often we have questions about other religions and wish we could find answers. There is a need for an exchange where no one feels threatened and where a true understanding is possible.
So the Interfaith Council of Greater Portland (ICGP) created the annual Festival of Faith to provide a friendly, casual, civil atmosphere where people can explore the area’s different religions, get their questions answered and meet people from all different backgrounds.
This year's theme is:
Stewardship of the Earth: Interfaith Community in Action
Bring your family, friends and neighbors to:
