Poway Interfaith Team

Poway Interfaith Team POINTS the Way….

The members of the Poway Interfaith Team are from diverse faith traditions within and outside Poway. We all are committed to our Mission Statement and continue to seek new and unique ways to educate and serve the community.

We believe diverse faith traditions in our communities add to the richness of life. When we meet and learn more about those who have faith traditions other than our own, we find many more similarities than differences. For example, every faith tradition’s holy books teach something similar to “love your neighbor as yourself.” We support a culture of interfaith dialogue and Inter-Religious cooperation as a way of life in all communities throughout the San Diego region.

Meeting Time

We meet the second Thursday of each month at a different Faith Location unless it interferes with a Holy Day. Location at the Community Church of Poway, 13501 Community Rd. Poway, CA 92064
All are welcome to attend.

POINT! - the POway INterfaith Team

“Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
“Interfaith dialogue is a must today, and the first step in establishing it is forgetting the past, ignoring polemical arguments, and giving precedence to common points, which far outnumber polemical ones.”
M. Fethullah Gülen
“Compassion is the essence of Jesus’ teaching, and indeed of the teaching of all great spiritual figures from Mohammed to Isaiah, from Lao Tzu to Chief Seattle. Yet compassion has been sentimentalized and severed from its relationship to justice-making and celebration. Creation Spirituality links the struggle for justice with the yearning for mysticism.”
Matthew Fox
"Every religion contains, in varying degrees, elements of the soft and the hard. For the sake of world peace, dialogue within religions and among them must strengthen the softer aspects."
Johan Galtung
“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace: where there is hatred, let me sow love: where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.”
Saint Francis of Assisi
“Never before probably has the need for interfaith commitment been nearly as great as it is at this very moment.”
Walter Cronkite
"We who have been born Buddhist, Hindu, Christian, Muslim, or any other faith can be very comfortable in each others temple's, mosques, and churches, praying or meditating together to create a spiritual mass of consciousness which can overcome our greed, hatred, and illusions."
Dr. Ari Ariyaratne
"We may have different religions, different languages, different colored skin, but we all belong to one human race."
Kofi Annan
To Consort with the Followers of all Religions in a Spirit of Friendliness and Fellowship. To increase Community Awareness and Understanding of different Faith Traditions.
