Milestones in Catholic-Jewish Relations
October 2, 2009Interfaith Youth Core
October 2, 2009In an era of global religious conflict, idealism has a new face: interfaith leadership through service. We believe there will be no peace in the world without religious pluralism, and no religious pluralism without the leadership of young people. Interfaith leadership is the key to ensuring that the 21st Century is defined by common service, not conflict, among the world’s diverse religious communities. Interfaith Youth Core’s (IFYC) 6th Conference, Leadership for a Religiously Diverse World, will engage participants in the question of how young people can be the architects of a global movement of interfaith service.
