The Annual Multifaith Pilgrimage for Peace
The London People of Faith for Peace is a group committed to inter-faith harmony and understanding. We are people who believe in the power of religious faith to bring peace and not division. All religions are represented, either in the groups of pilgrims or in the places of worship that we visit, often in both. The Pilgrimage takes place in June each year.
The Westminster Interfaith team is currently thinking about the pilgrimages for 2011 and 2012. Any ideas?
