First National Interfaith week - See what is happening here

Welcome to our web site!

There is no doubt that we live in a time when everyone is aware of the need for understanding of other cultures and faiths. Peace has always been a difficult concept for human beings and there have been many attempts to encourage people of different faiths to work together.

We hope that you will find these pages useful and informative. But more importantly that they will encourage you to go out and talk with people of other faiths in the city.

The Southampton Interfaith Link and Southampton Council of Faiths are individuals who care passionately about trying to develop and understanding of each others faiths and practices in the city of Southampton and surrounding area.

We believe that if we can break down the barriers that appear to divide us we can truly work towards a world where peace is possible in the future. we have already seen some amazing results when people have come together to recognise disasters around the world.

Our Vision:

To create a formally recognised forum in which people representing the diversity of the faith communities of Southampton and its surrounding areas, could have their views represented and ultimately recognised as a valid contribution to the political, economical , social and moral welfare of the city.

We hope that you will contribute to the life of this web site and if you have any comments or suggestions please email them to suggestions@southampton-faiths.org. Thank you for your time and we will look forward to hearing from you.

Jeff Lynn
Chairman of Southampton Council of Faiths
