Sixty people took part in an interfaith evening in Perth on 18th February on the theme, “Love your neighbour...”
The event was jointly organised by members of the Abrahamic Alliance, Initiatives of Change and the University of West Australia Centre for Muslim States and Societies.
Speakers from Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths set the scene giving thoughts on the subject from their own tradition. This was followed by brisk discussion around tables.
Participants were asked to give a story from their own experience illustrating ‘Love your neighbour'. After a tea break the same groups came together again to give thought to how we can live ‘Love your neighbour in Perth in 2007’. A light hearted spirit of kindness and inclusiveness characterised the meeting and drew participants together.
