Greetings to our Muslim neighbours for Eid al-Adha

The Ecumenical/Multi-Faith Unit Group and the Bishop of New Westminster have coordinated a letter of greeting to local Muslim communities on their Holiday of Eid al-Adha. This year Eid al-Adha is commemorated from the evening of Friday July 8 and ends the evening of Tuesday July 12.

You can learn about this Muslim holiday here and why it is an important day in the faith tradition of our Muslim neighbours.

As followers of Christ we take seriously Jesus' call to walk in peace with one another. If you have a Muslim friend, neighbour, co-worker, family member, be sure to share with them this letter of greeting and the peace Christ has given you.
