Why Tri-Faith?
Together, we offer antidotes to fear and hate.
We connect interfaith neighbors in community, nurturing relationships.
We cultivate trust and understanding, celebrating religious differences.
I’ve always said that Tri-Faith isn’t as much for me as it is for my grandchildren, because they won’t know any different. My grandchildren will grow up as members of Temple Israel on the Tri-Faith Commons with Christian and Muslim neighbors. They’ll work in the garden together, play together on the playground, and attend one another’s place of worship. Tri-Faith is a legacy for our grandchildren.
