Welcome to Greenwich Multi-Faith Forum

About the Greenwich Multi-Faith Forum

The Greenwich Multi-Faith Forum is a group set up to foster good relationships between members of the various Faiths found in the London Borough of Greenwich. Members of the Forum do not pretend to have the same belief nor have the same understanding of 'GOD' or the World. Our differing Faiths do not allow us to pray together, though we may spend some moments together in silence.The group believe it valuable that at least those who do believe in 'GOD' should learn to work together. Having this in common, we are in a better position to try to break down barriers and foster good relationship between people of all Faiths. We learn to respect each other’s beliefs whilst holding strongly to our own.

We learn more of our own belief by listening to the wisdom of others.

The aims of the Forum are to:

a.   Break down Barriers

b.   Build bridges.

c.         Learn about each other’s beliefs

d.               Be a pressure Group.

e.    Help our own individual spirituality.

f.    Be aware of and respect the needs of others

g.    Be an example of tolerance.

We aim to achieve these by:

a.   socialising with people of all Faiths.

b.   visiting Places of worships.

c.   educating ourselves by both learning and talking about each

     others faiths, beliefs and culture.

d.   acting as a pressure group whereby we share business

     (issues of faith matters) and form strategies in promoting

    and fostering good relation in the community.

e.   developing our own spirituality through reflecting on our

     purpose of being.

f.   becoming aware of our needs and respectful of the needs of

     others by reaching out to people of faiths both in our

     individual communities and in the wider community.

g.   becoming an example of tolerance by showing respect for

     each others religion and religious beliefs in an anti -

        discriminatory way, whilst holding fast and strong to our

     individual religious beliefs.

Meetings of the Forum are usually held once every six weeks.
