The Interfaith Working Group actively cultivates connections with non-Jewish faith-based communities and leaders across Durham and Orange County. As Beth El’s liaison to Durham Congregations in Action (DCIA), we facilitate meaningful engagement and collaboration.
Our past initiatives include fostering relationships with local mosques through co-learning activities and ongoing partnerships. Additionally, we’ve fostered connections with Trinity Avenue Presbyterian Church, emphasizing relationship-building beyond mere space utilization.
Furthermore, we coordinate synagogue tours and Judaism information sessions for school and church groups upon request, promoting understanding and dialogue.
Join us in our endeavors! We welcome your participation and ideas. Our meetings, held every couple of months in the evening, are supplemented by volunteer efforts between gatherings.
