DIALOGUE
WITH THE ABRAHAMIC FAITHS
As a Christian church, United Christian Parish acknowledges
its historical links to Abraham, the father we share with the Judaic and
Islamic traditions. We hope for peace and understanding among these three
Abrahamic faiths. We encourage opportunities for ongoing dialogue and
cooperate in joint mission to the Reston/Herndon community through Works
Sunday. Our Confirmation class visits the All
Dulles Area Muslim Society
(ADAMS) in Sterling and the Northern
Virginia Hebrew Congregation
in Reston
each year in order to promote interfaith understanding in our youth.
