Hosting Interfaith Symposiums - an Excellent Way to Connect over our Differences in today's ever divided world

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Women’s Association hosted their Interfaith Symposium this weekend on April 30th in Toronto. There was representation from five different faiths at the event. Representing the Christian faith was Mrs. Jade Pitts, representing the Hindu faith was Dr. Nivedita Das Kundu, representing the Sikh faith was Ms. Parm Sidhu, representing the Buddhist faith was Dr. Rajini George, and representing the Islamic faith was Ms. Wardah Faryal. All the speakers spoke on the topic of women’s empowerment in light of their respective faith. This provided a great opportunity to embrace our differences and celebrate the diversity in the faiths that were represented.
