As part of the World Interfaith Week, the Islamic Centre hosted today a Muslim-Christian Interfaith Meeting in which members of the Catholic Church, Orthodox Church and Church of Ireland visited the Islamic Centre in Blanchardstown.

World Interfaith Harmony Week celebrates the principles of tolerance and respect for the other that are deeply rooted in the world’s major religions. The observance is also a summons to solidarity in the face of those who spread misunderstanding and mistrust. World Interfaith Harmony Week is an annual event to be observed during the first week of February starting in 2011.
