Building Interfaith Bridges Projects
Our Community Committee of Faith-Based Leaders
Building Interfaith Bridge is a committee of faith-based leaders that have been meeting for over five years.
​
Building Interfaith Bridges is a community committee of faith-based leaders providing dialogue and workshops. We have accepted the LIPs Council’s request to formally become a working group. In this committee, we work on our initiatives to promote the anti-discrimination and racism mandates. We develop key actions that we would like our municipalities to adopt and incorporate into future planning and policy development for newcomers.
​
LIPs will increase our capacity to engage all community members through coordinated, comprehensive, and strategic approaches. We will create a Terms of Reference, continue with their original mandate (meeting monthly except in August and December), and include public campaigns and community dialogues focused on anti-discrimination and cultural diversity awareness.
In our meetings, we gather to discuss the different beliefs in a setting of goodwill and understanding. After COVID-19, we have had the opportunity to expand our horizons, get a greater understanding of people, and explore communities. Join us every third Wednesday of the month.
The boxes show six sets of themes: love, generosity, justice, forgiveness, courage, and unity. These are the topics that we discuss during our dialogues. We believe that families and communities can benefit from combining these different topics to thrive as a community.
