The Rev. Mitchell Trigger, who recently moved to a pastorate in New Jersey, writes out of his discovery of the challenges and the growth that come from living in a religiously diverse community, especially when genuine dialogue begins to take place.

Out of that experience has come a overture to the 218th General Assembly, “On Calling for Tolerance and Peaceful Relations between the Christian and Muslim Communities.”

Do you want to be notified whenever something new is added to this web site?

Just send a note, and we'll add you to our e-list for brief notes when something new is posted here.

1.  We want to share our concerns and views with commissioners and others attending the Assembly, and with anyone else who is watching from afar.  While some of our groups focus on one area of concern and others are more general in their focus, we are all committed to the wholeness of our world, which we understand to involve justice and peace and the well-being of all people; and we are committed to the wholeness and health of our Church and its witness and service in the world.

2.  We want to get to know you better and serve your concerns and needs in any way we can.  So we will invite you to share your views with us and with one another with any email responses or questions.  We'll invite your responses with links here and there, and we'll try to post those that seem to contribute to our conversations.  Just send a note now, and tell us how we can be helpful!
