Building Bridges of Peace

November 2, 2016 by St. George's Leave a Comment

We will be hosting an Interfaith Community Forum on Nov. 13, 3 p.m. in the main church nave. Join us for a presentation from renowned Islamic scholar Ambassador Akbar Ahmed followed by a conversation moderated by the Rev. Deacon Ed Jones. Ambassador Ahmed is the Ibn Khaldun Chair of Islamic Studies at American University in Washington, D.C. and the former Pakistani High Commissioner to the UK and Ireland.

In 2010, Ambassador Ahmed appeared on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Watch his interview here:
