‘A Bridge to Islam?’

Monday 25 May 2015

John and Joan Millet will lead us in our exploration of this timely topic. Both are members of the URC tradition, and with a great deal of experience of inter-faith matters. They also attend the World Parliament of Religions, which meets every four years. The meeting will be chaired by Jean Williams, who has both expertise and teaching experience in various faith traditions. We are looking forward to an interesting and informative evening, and we welcome anyone who may be interested in the subject - whether a PCN member or not - to join us on the 25th.
