Interfaith dialogue

“There will be no peace among the nations without peace among the religions. There will be no peace among the religions without dialogue among the religions.” —Theologian Hans Küng

Canada is an increasingly pluralistic country, and more and more Canadians are living, working, and socializing side by side with people of other religious traditions. For Christians, there is a growing need not just for dialogue with people of other faiths, but for genuine relationships with them. Increased awareness of religious plurality, the potential role of religion in conflict, and the growing place of religion in public life all present urgent challenges that require greater understanding and cooperation among people of diverse faiths.

The Anglican Church of Canada pursues formal dialogue with people of other faiths together with the other member churches of the Canadian Council of Churches.

The Rev. Canon. Dr. Isaac Kawuki Mukasa is the Anglican Church of Canada’s coordinator for dialogue. Contact him by email or phone: (416) 924-9199 ext. 209.
