Sant'Egidio Interfaith Breakfast

The Chaplain-President accompanied Dr Robert Innes, Anglican Bishop in Europe, to this year's Interfaith Harmony Breakfast, organised at Brussels Airport today by the Community of Sant'Egidio. Interfaith leaders from the Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican and Protestant Christian traditions, and from Judaism, Islam and Buddhism, took part. The topic for discussion was the 2019 Document sur la fraternité humaine, pour la paix mondiale et la coexistence commune issued by Pope Francis and Grand Imam Ahmad Al-Tayyeb, Rector of Al-Azhar University Cairo (the Muslim equivalent of Oxford and Cambridge universities for Anglicans or KU Leuven for Catholics). Those present recommitted themselves to active interfaith dialogue and action.
