Imam Abid Hashmi sharing thoughts at Maidenhead Synagogue Friday June 28th 8.30pm
Underneath all faiths is a commonality
The idea of Faith leaders from the town sharing talks came from Rabbi Dr. Jonathan Romain. Jonathan’s idea is to spread a message of peace and solidarity following the attacks in Pittsburgh, Christchurch, New Zealand and Sri Lanka. Jonathan added ‘I felt the religious leaders had to rise to the challenge and show that, while we cannot control what extremists do, mainstream communities can forge a better way forward.’ Jonathan wants us to highlight that Jews, Christians and Muslims can practise their own religions and live in harmony with each other. The hope is that ‘this will serve as a pilot project that will be emulated throughout the UK.’
Talks are scheduled as follows:-
Rabbi Dr Jonathan Romain is speaking at All Saints at 10am on Sunday 21st July
Fr. Jeremy is speaking at the Synagogue on Friday 19th July at 8.30pm finishing at 9.15pm followed by refreshments.
