Annual World Religion Day Observance, A Peace-Making Initiative

34th ANNUAL WORLD RELIGION DAY OBSERVANCE

Each year on the 3rd Sunday in January, religions of the world and the community gather in an observance of unity, celebrating the shared values and principles common among such diverse faith traditions.

Once again this year’s event takes place on ZOOM and over Facebook Live at 1:00 PM on Sunday, January 15th.

The global community continues to seek ways to create pathways in the world for peace, and, with your help, this event promises to bring greater awareness to the common goals, principles and values shared across all faith traditions, while fostering closer bonds of unity, cooperation and understanding amongst such diversity.

The theme this year is ”Change The World”, with participation and attendance by several faith traditions from around the Barrie area, united through common virtues.

Representatives from each religion will share how their tradition understands and embraces the theme, followed by a sacred reading or prayer. Moments of music videos, interactive chat, on-screen engagement, and a closing Q&A will also be part of the 90-minute program.

Folks can register to attend the ZOOM gathering at https://tinyurl.com/JoinWRD2023 or watch the Live Stream on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/BarrieWRD/live_videos/ on event day.
