Interfaith

Mission Statement

The CBF/GA Interfaith Taskforce is committed to cooperatively working together to broaden mutual understanding and to improve relationships among people of diverse faiths.

Vision Statement

Deriving from an authentic Baptist faith tradition that respects freedom of religious conscience, our vision is:

1. to foster a lasting community in which everyone's faith tradition is individually valued and mutually respected

2. to develop friendships through education, hospitality and service

3. to discover our mutual commonalities through the sharing of our diverse stories

4. to learn compassion, understanding and empathy for each other through the building of relationships

5. to enrich our faith journeys by listening with theological and intellectual humility

6. to nourish a spirit of peacemaking which affirms the value of all people

7. to develop sensitivity to our cultural differences
