“New Paths in Muslim-Christian Dialog”: Rod Cardoza

COMMUNITY OF FAITH BREAKFAST

Rod Cardoza is the founder and executive director of Abrahamic Alliance International, a nonprofit organization uniting Jews, Christians, and Muslims to serve the poor. Rod envisions a world where children of Abraham unite to save lives; where Jews, Christians and Muslims enjoy peaceful coexistence and mutual appreciation as our faith is deepened by meaningful encounters with each other; where understanding, humility and respect replace ignorance, arrogance, and contempt; where diverse yet faithful worshipers of the God of Abraham move beyond dialog to cooperative action, loving our neighbors together until the hungry are fed, the naked are clothed, the sick receive care, and the orphan is raised with love, compassion and generosity.

Community of Faith Breakfasts are monthly gatherings hosted by the Bay Area Family Church with speakers on topics of interest to the interfaith world.
